IMultiLanguage2 Methods

ConvertString	Converts the given source string from the source code page to the destination code page.
ConvertStringFromUnicode	Translates the source Unicode string to the specified multibyte code page.
ConvertStringFromUnicodeEx	Translates the source Unicode string to the specified multibyte code page.
ConvertStringInIStream	Converts the given stream from the source code page to the destination code page.
ConvertStringReset	Not currently implemented.
ConvertStringToUnicode	Translates the source string from the specified code page to Unicode.
ConvertStringToUnicodeEx	Translates the multibyte string from the specified code page to Unicode.
CreateConvertCharset	Creates a charset Conversion Object and retrieves its corresponding IMLangConvertCharset interface.
DetectCodepageInIStream	Detects the code page of the given stream.
DetectInputCodepage	Detects the code page of the given string.
EnumCodePages	Creates a Code Page Enumeration Object, initializes it with the value specified with grfFlags, and retrieves the corresponding IEnumCodePage interface.
EnumRfc1766	Creates a Locale Enumeration Object and retrieves the corresponding IEnumRfc1766 interface.
EnumScripts	Creates a Script Enumeration Object, initializes it with the specified SCRIPTINFO constants, and retrieves the corresponding IEnumScript interface.

Remarks

IMultiLanguage2 updates IMultiLanguage by adding and expanding methods. These changes create a new code page detection functionality and enhance the existing character set conversion functionality. IMultiLanguage2 also supports the original capabilities of IMultiLanguage, such as character set conversion and information retrieval from the MIME database. IMultiLanguage2 should be used in place of IMultiLanguage.
