ShortToFCB

ShortToFCB(
 string_t pFCBName,
 string_t p83Name,
 unsigned int length
 )

This service translates a unicode 8.3-format name into a unicode FCB-format name. Different buffers must be used for the source and destination names.

pFCBName

Supplies a flat pointer to the destination buffer to contain the FCB-format name. This buffer must be at least 22 bytes in length.

p83Name

Supplies a flat pointer to the source 8.3-format name.

length

Supplies the length in bytes of the source 8.3-format name.

• Returns the number of bytes in the output FCB-format name. Since the FCB-format is a fixed length format, the value returned is always 22.
