CharTable
The CharTable function allows to get information about installed character
tables.
int WINAPI CharTable(
int Command,
char *Buffer,
int BufferSize
);
Parameters
Command
Either the number of the requested character table or one of the following
commands (the
FARCHARTABLE_COMMAND enum):
| Command | Description |
|---|
| FCT_DETECT |
Autodetect the character table for given text |
Buffer
If
Command is equal to
FCT_DETECT, specifies the address
of a buffer with text data. Otherwise, specifies the address of a
CharTableSet structure that receives information
about the requested character table.
BufferSize
If
Command is
FCT_DETECT,
BufferSize should
contain the size of the buffer with text data to analyze. Otherwise it is the size of the
CharTableSet structure.
Return value
-1, if the requested table is not present or autodetection failed.
If successful, the function returns the number of the requested table and fills the structure
pointed by Buffer. In FCT_DETECT mode it returns the number of the detected
table and does not change Buffer data.
Remarks
- To enumerate all FAR character tables, start with Command equal
to 0 and increment it until the return value will be -1.
- The CharTableSet structure is filled with OEM
data if there where problems while reading settigs of some table (when Command does not
equals FCT_DETECT).
