Locale-Sensitive Windows C++ Function
BOOL IsDBCSLeadByteEx(UINT CodePage, BYTE TestChar);
Internationalization (I18n) Function Overview
The IsDBCSLeadByteEx function returns a non-zero value if TestChar is
the first byte of a two-byte character in a double-byte character set (DBCS). Otherwise, it returns
0 and sets extended error information that can be obtained by calling GetLastError.
The function uses the code page specified by CodePage to test the semantics of the
character. This value can be a specific code page value,
or one of the following predefined values:
CP_ACP to use system default ANSI code page;
CP_MACCP (only on Windows NT/2000/XP) to use the system default Macintosh code page;
CP_OEMCP to use system default OEM code page;
CP_THREAD_ACP (only on Windows 2000/XP) to use the current thread's ANSI code page.
I18n Issues
In an internationalized application, the ANSI code page may
vary. Consequently, CodePage should not be a hardcoded value and should be independent of the
user's system settings. Either set CodePage to CP_THREAD_ACP to use the
ANSI code page of the application's current
thread, if supported, or, retrieve the specific code page value from a resource file and pass that in as
the CodePage argument.
Recommended Replacements*
There are no variations of the function call: a single byte is expected.
