_ismbbkprint, _ismbbkprint_l

Determines whether a particular multibyte character is a punctuation symbol.

Syntax

int _ismbbkprint(
   unsigned int c
);
int _ismbbkprint_l(
   unsigned int c,
   _locale_t locale
);

Parameters

c
Integer to be tested.

locale
Locale to use.

Return value

_ismbbkprint returns a nonzero value if the integer c is a non-ASCII text or non-ASCII punctuation symbol. Otherwise, it returns 0. For example, in code page 932 only, _ismbbkprint tests for katakana alphanumeric or katakana punctuation (range: 0xA1 - 0xDF). _ismbbkprint uses the current locale for locale-dependent character settings. _ismbbkprint_l is identical except that it uses the locale passed in. For more information, see Locale.

Remarks

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

Requirements
