NAME¶

VarBstrCmp (OLEAUT32.314)

SYNOPSIS¶

HRESULT VarBstrCmp
(
BSTR pbstrLeft,
BSTR pbstrRight,
LCID lcid,
DWORD dwFlags
)

DESCRIPTION¶

Compare two BSTR values.

PARAMS¶

pbstrLeft [In] Source. pbstrRight [In] Value to compare. lcid [In] LCID for the comparison. dwFlags [In] Flags to pass directly to CompareStringW(3w).

RETURNS¶

VARCMP_LT, VARCMP_EQ or VARCMP_GT indicating that pbstrLeft is less than, equal to or greater than pbstrRight respectively.

NOTES¶

VARCMP_NULL is NOT returned if either string is NULL unlike MSDN states. A NULL BSTR pointer is equivalent to an empty string. If LCID is equal to 0, a byte by byte comparison is performed.

IMPLEMENTATION¶

Declared in "oleauto.h". Implemented in "dlls/oleaut32/vartype.c". Debug channel "variant".
