IsValidLocale (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

This function applies a validity test to a locale identifier. The dwFlags parameter determines the nature of the validity test. Currently, this function tests whether a locale identifier is installed or supported on the calling system.

BOOLIsValidLocale(LCIDLocale, DWORDdwFlags );

Parameters

  • Locale
    [in] Locale identifier to be validated. You can use the MAKELCID macro to create a locale identifier.
  • dwFlags
    [in] Value that specifies the validity test to apply to the locale identifier. The following table shows the values this parameter can take.
    Value Description
    LCID_INSTALLED Test whether the locale identifier is both supported and installed.
    LCID_SUPPORTED Test whether the locale identifier is supported.

Return Values

Nonzero indicates that the locale identifier passes the specified validity test. Zero indicates that the locale identifier does not pass the specified validity test.

Remarks

If the LCID_INSTALLED flag is specified and this function returns a nonzero value, the locale identifier is both supported and installed on the system.

If the LCID_SUPPORTED flag is specified and this function returns zero, the locale identifier is supported in the release, but not necessarily installed on the system. Windows CE does not support the downloading of code pages to a device.
