  • Article

Internal CRT function. Retrieves the maximum number of bytes in a multibyte character for the current or specified locale.

int ___mb_cur_max_func(void);
int ___mb_cur_max_l_func(_locale_t locale);
int * __p___mb_cur_max(void);
#define __mb_cur_max (___mb_cur_max_func())

Parameters

  • locale
    The locale structure to retrieve the result from. If this value is null, the current thread locale is used.

Return Value

The maximum number of bytes in a multibyte character for the current thread locale or the specified locale.

Remarks

This is an internal function that the CRT uses to retrieve the current value of the MB_CUR_MAX macro from thread local storage. We recommend that you use the MB_CUR_MAX macro in your code for portability.

The __mb_cur_max macro is a convenient way to call the ___mb_cur_max_func() function. The __p___mb_cur_max function is defined for compatibility with Visual C++ 5.0 and earlier versions.

Internal CRT functions are implementation-specific and subject to change with each release. We don't recommend their use in your code.
