TerMakeMbcs

Build an MBCS string from lead and tail bytes.

int TerMakeMbcs(string, tail, lead,length)

HWND hWnd;	Handle of the window to be accessed
LPBYTE string;	The location to retrieve the mbcs string.
LPBYTE tail;	The pointer to the tail bytes of the mbcs string.
LPBYTE lead;	The pointer to the lead bytes of the mbcs string. This string should have the same number of bytes as the 'tail' string. For the single-byte characters, the 'lead' byte should be set to NULL.
int length;	Length of the 'tail' and 'lead' strings.

Description: This function can be used to combine the lead and tail bytes of an mbcs (Multi-byte Character Set) string to return the combined mbcs string.

Return Value: This function returns the byte length of the mbcs string.

Example:

dim MbcsText as string*2000 ' location to retrieve the mbcs string

dim tail as string*MAX_WIDTH

dim lead as string*MAX_WIDTH

dim StringLen as integer

dim LineLen as Integer

tail=space$(MAX_WIDTH)

lead=space$(MAX_WIDTH)

LineLen=TerGetLineEx(hWnd,LineNo,tail,lead,NULL) ' get the lead and tail bytes for a text line

MbcsText=space$(MAX_WIDTH) ' allocate space for the parameter

StringLen = TerMakeMbcs(MbcsText,tail,lead,length(tail)) ' build an mbcs string
