The NdisEqualString function compares two strings, in the OS-default character set, to determine whether they are equal.

Syntax

void NdisEqualString(
  [in]  _String1,
  [in]  _String2,
  [in]  _CaseInsensitive
);

Parameters

[in] _String1

A pointer to an NDIS_STRING type that describes the first string.

[in] _String2

A pointer to an NDIS_STRING type that describes the second string.

[in] _CaseInsensitive

A boolean value that is TRUE if case should be ignored when doing the comparison. Otherwise, it is FALSE.

Remarks

Starting with Windows 2000, a string of type NDIS_STRING is a counted, null-terminated Unicode string. That is, NDIS defines the NDIS_STRING type as a UNICODE_STRING type.
