This function enumerates the calendar information by calling an application-defined callback function. It passes the callback function a pointer to a string buffer that contains the requested calendar information. This continues until either the last applicable calendar is found or the callback function returns FALSE.

Note

If you specify a locale with the LCID (Locale ID) parameter and that locale is not installed or available on the Windows® phone, the function fails with ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER. To determine whether the locale is supported or not, call IsValidLocale.

The CAL_IYEAROFFSETRANGE and CAL_SERASTRING values vary in format depending on the type of optional calendar. The following example shows the values for these types (for each supported alternate calendar type) along with the formula for how to use the CAL_IYEAROFFSETRANGE value to compute the correct year given the Gregorian current year value Y:

CAL_ICALINTVALUE = "1"
CAL_IYEAROFFSETRANGE = ""
CAL_SERASTRING = ""
CAL_ICALINTVALUE = "2"
CAL_IYEAROFFSETRANGE = ""
CAL_SERASTRING = ""
CAL_ICALINTVALUE = "3"
CAL_IYEAROFFSETRANGE = "1989\01926\01912\01868\0"
CAL_SERASTRING = "Ux337B\0Ux337C\0Ux337D\0Ux337E\0"
if (Y>=1989) { Y = (Y–1989)+1; } 
if (Y>=1926 && Y<1989) { Y = (Y–1926)+1; } 
if (Y>=1912 && Y<1926) { Y = (Y–1912)+1; }
if (Y>=1868 && Y<1912) { Y = (Y–1868)+1; } 
if (Y<1868) { Y = Y; } 
CAL_ICALINTVALUE = "4"
CAL_IYEAROFFSETRANGE = "1912\0"
CAL_SERASTRING = "Ux4E2D\0Ux83EF\0Ux6C11\0Ux570B\0"
if (Y>=1912) { Y = (Y–1912)+1; } 
if (Y<1912) { Y = Y; }
CAL_ICALINTVALUE = "5"
CAL_IYEAROFFSETRANGE = "2333\0"
CAL_SERASTRING = ""
Y = Y+2333;
