Prototype

int _ismbclegal(unsigned int c);

Description

_ismbclegal tests whether each byte of the c argument is in the code page that is currently in use.

Return Value

_ismbclegal returns a nonzero value if the argument c is a valid multibyte character on the current code page. Otherwise, the function returns zero.

Example

#include <mbstring.h>
bool checkValid(char* input)
{
  while (*input)
  {
    /* Of we have a MBCS char (lead + trail), check if it is valid in the current
       OS code-page by using _ismbclegal. This check should never fail since
       _ismbblead and _ismbbtrail are only sensitive for MBCS chars in the same CP.
     */
    if (_ismbblead(*input) && _ismbbtrail(*(input + 1)))
      if (!_ismbclegal(*input + (*(input + 1) << 8)))
        return false;

    input++;
  } 

  /* The check succeeded */
  return true;
}
