_ismbbtrail, _ismbbtrail_l

  • Article

Determines whether a byte is a trailing byte of a multibyte character.

Syntax

int _ismbbtrail(
   unsigned int c
);
int _ismbbtrail_l(
   unsigned int c,
   _locale_t locale
);

Parameters

c
The integer to be tested.

locale
The locale to use.

Return value

_ismbbtrail returns a nonzero value if the integer c is the second byte of a multibyte character. For example, in code page 932 only, valid ranges are 0x40 to 0x7E and 0x80 to 0xFC.

Remarks

_ismbbtrail uses the current locale for locale-dependent behavior. _ismbbtrail_l is identical except that it uses the locale that's passed in instead. For more information, see Locale.

By default, this function's global state is scoped to the application. To change this behavior, see Global state in the CRT.

Requirements
