Function rtsmb_unicode_to_ascii

rtsmb_unicode_to_ascii translates a 16-bit Unicode string (for example, a file name) to the current 8-bit character set:

void rtsmb_unicode_to_ascii(const wchar_t * src, 
                            char          * dest, 
                            UINT            MaxLength);

Parameters

src

Pointer to a NUL-terminated Unicode string to translate.

dest

Pointer to a buffer to receive the translated string.

MaxLength

Size in bytes of the buffer pointed to by dest. If the supplied buffer space is insufficient, the string is truncated and NUL-terminated.

The string is translated to the currently active code page, established with the last call to rtsmb_set_codepage or rtsmb_set_codepage_UTF8. If no such function was previously called, OEM code page 437 is used by default.
