NdisEqualString (NDIS 5.1) function

Note   NDIS 5. x has been deprecated and is superseded by NDIS 6. x. For new NDIS driver development, see Network Drivers Starting with Windows Vista. For information about porting NDIS 5. x drivers to NDIS 6. x, see Porting NDIS 5.x Drivers to NDIS 6.0.

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

Syntax

BOOLEAN NdisEqualString(
  _In_ PNDIS_STRING String1,
  _In_ PNDIS_STRING String2,
  _In_ BOOLEAN      CaseInsensitive
);

Parameters

  • String1 [in]
    Pointer to an NDIS_STRING type that describes the first string.

  • String2 [in]
    Pointer to an NDIS_STRING type that describes the second string.

  • CaseInsensitive [in]
