Use the following tips:
-
Comparing a known lead byte with an ASCII character works correctly:
if( *sz1 == 'A' ) -
Comparing two unknown characters requires the use of one of the macros defined in Mbstring.h:
if( !_mbccmp( sz1, sz2) )This ensures that both bytes of a double-byte character are compared for equality.
