NdisAnsiStringToUnicodeString

NDIS_STATUS
NdisAnsiStringToUnicodeString(
IN OUT PNDIS_STRING DestinationString,
IN PNDIS_ANSI_STRING SourceString
);

NdisAnsiStringToUnicodeString converts a given counted ANSI string into a counted Unicode string. The translation conforms to the current system locale information.

Parameters

DestinationString: Points to a caller-allocated buffer in which this function should return the converted Unicode string.
SourceString: Points to the ANSI string to be converted.

Return Value

NdisAnsiStringToUnicodeString returns NDIS_STATUS_SUCCESS if the conversion succeeds. Otherwise, the contents of the buffer at DestinationString are unaffected.

Comments

The caller must allocate storage for both the source and destination strings and release these buffers as soon as the strings are no longer needed. The buffer at DestinationString must be at least twice the size of that at SourceString.
