CharLowerWrapW function
[CharLowerWrapW is available for use in Windows XP. It may not be available in subsequent versions. You should use CharLowerW in its place.]
Converts a Unicode character string or a single character to lowercase. If the operand is a character string, the function converts the characters in place.
Note
CharLowerWrapW is a wrapper for the CharLowerW function. See the CharLower page for further usage notes.
Syntax
LPWSTR CharLowerWrapW(
_Inout_ LPWSTR pch
);
Parameters
-
pch [in, out]
-
Type: LPWSTR
A pointer to a null-terminated Unicode string or a single character. If the high-order word of this parameter is zero, the low-order word must contain only a single character to be converted.
Return value
Type: LPWSTR
If pch is a character string, the function returns a pointer to the converted string. Since the string is converted in place, the return value is equal to pch.
If pch is a single character, the return value is a 32-bit value whose high-order word is zero, and low-order word contains the converted character.
There is no indication of success or failure. Failure is rare. There is no extended error information for this function; do not call GetLastError.
Remarks
The preferred method is to use CharLowerW in conjunction with the Microsoft Layer for Unicode (MSLU).
CharLowerWrapW must be called directly from Shlwapi.dll, using ordinal 38.
