Functions

HSTRING_UserFree The HSTRING_UserFree function (winstring.h) frees resources on the server side when called by RPC stub files.
HSTRING_UserMarshal The HSTRING_UserMarshal function (winstring.h) marshals an HSTRING object into the RPC buffer.
HSTRING_UserSize The HSTRING_UserSize function (winstring.h) calculates the wire size of the HSTRING object, and retrieves its handle and data.
HSTRING_UserUnmarshal The HSTRING_UserUnmarshal function (winstring.h) unmarshals an HSTRING object from the RPC buffer.
WindowsCompareStringOrdinal Compares two specified HSTRING objects and returns an integer that indicates their relative position in a sort order.
WindowsConcatString Concatenates two specified strings.
WindowsCreateString Creates a new HSTRING based on the specified source string.
WindowsCreateStringReference Creates a new string reference based on the specified string.
WindowsDeleteString Decrements the reference count of a string buffer.
WindowsDeleteStringBuffer Discards a preallocated string buffer if it was not promoted to an HSTRING.
WindowsDuplicateString Creates a copy of the specified string.
WindowsGetStringLen Gets the length, in Unicode characters, of the specified string.
WindowsGetStringRawBuffer Retrieves the backing buffer for the specified string.
WindowsInspectString Provides a way to for debuggers to display the value of a Windows Runtime HSTRING in another address space, remotely, or from a dump. (WindowsInspectString)
WindowsInspectString2 Provides a way to for debuggers to display the value of a Windows Runtime HSTRING in another address space, remotely, or from a dump. (WindowsInspectString2)
WindowsIsStringEmpty Indicates whether the specified string is the empty string.
WindowsPreallocateStringBuffer Allocates a mutable character buffer for use in HSTRING creation.
WindowsPromoteStringBuffer Creates an HSTRING from the specified HSTRING_BUFFER.
WindowsReplaceString Replaces all occurrences of a set of characters in the specified string with another set of characters to create a new string.
WindowsStringHasEmbeddedNull Indicates whether the specified string has embedded null characters.
WindowsSubstring Retrieves a substring from the specified string. The substring starts at the specified character position.
WindowsSubstringWithSpecifiedLength Retrieves a substring from the specified string. The substring starts at a specified character position and has a specified length.
WindowsTrimStringEnd Removes all trailing occurrences of a specified set of characters from the source string.
WindowsTrimStringStart Removes all leading occurrences of a specified set of characters from the source string.

Callback functions

PINSPECT_HSTRING_CALLBACK Provides a function pointer to the callback used by the WindowsInspectString function.
