_ismbslead, _ismbstrail

Visual Studio .NET 2003

int _ismbslead(
   const unsigned char *string,
   const unsigned char *current 
);
int _ismbstrail(
   const unsigned char *string,
   const unsigned char *current 
);

Parameters

string: Pointer to start of string or previous known lead byte.
current: Pointer to position in string to be tested.

Return Value

_ismbslead and _ismbstrail return –1 if the character is a lead or trail byte, respectively. Otherwise they return zero.

Remarks

The _ismbslead and _ismbstrail routines perform context-sensitive tests for multibyte-character string lead and trail bytes; they determine whether a given substring pointer points to a lead byte or a trail byte. _ismbslead and _ismbstrail are slower than their _ismbblead and _ismbbtrail counterparts because they take the string context into account.
