EngMultiByteToUnicodeN function (winddi.h)

The EngMultiByteToUnicodeN function converts the specified ANSI source string into a Unicode string using the current ANSI code page.

Syntax

ENGAPI VOID EngMultiByteToUnicodeN(
  [out]           LPWSTR UnicodeString,
  [in]            ULONG  MaxBytesInUnicodeString,
  [out, optional] PULONG BytesInUnicodeString,
  [in]            PCHAR  MultiByteString,
  [in]            ULONG  BytesInMultiByteString
);

Parameters

[out] UnicodeString

Pointer to the buffer that receives the resultant Unicode string.

[in] MaxBytesInUnicodeString

Supplies the maximum number of bytes to be written to UnicodeString. If this value is too small, causing UnicodeString to be a truncated equivalent of MultiByteString, no error condition results.

[out, optional] BytesInUnicodeString

Pointer to a ULONG that receives the number of bytes written to UnicodeString.

[in] MultiByteString

Pointer to the ANSI source string that is to be converted to Unicode.

[in] BytesInMultiByteString

Specifies the number of bytes in MultiByteString.

Return value

None
