Character Comparison

Home |  Unicode Tasks |  Multibyte Character Set (MBCS) Tasks

Use the following tips:

• Comparing a known lead byte with an ASCII character works correctly:

  if( *sz1 == 'A' )
  

• Comparing two unknown characters requires the use of one of the macros defined in MBSTRING.H:

  if( !_mbccmp( sz1, sz2) )
  

  This ensures that both bytes of a double-byte character are compared for equality.
