CString::MakeUpper() and MakeLower() for Non-English language
-
. Merry Christmas, everyone! Do functions MakeUpper() and MakeLower() of CString work well for Non-English languages, such as French, German, Greek, Japanese, Korean etc? I don't know if the languages specified above are case-sensitive, my question is: Can MakeUpper() and MakeLower() change case for Non-English characters if they are case-sensitive?

I would expect them to work well with European languages based on the Roman, Greek, and Cyrillic alphabets. Asian languages are another story. Japanese has three character sets; Kanji (Chinese), Hiragana, and Katakana. Kanji is not an alphabet and as such has no capitalization. Hiragan and Katakana are phoentic character sets where each character represents a syallable. They also have no capital forms. I really don't know about Middle Eastern languages.

Hi, thanks, you look like a language expert. "I would expect:" Yes for following languages: French German Greek Latin No for: Japanese Korean How about followings? Italian Russian Portuguese Spanish Is this your opinion? Could you write down a list as above, so it is clearer? Could you also add more main languages as you know?

Cyrillic is for Russia and many of the North-Middle East-Europe lands. The rest are include in Roman alphabet. Same as Flamingo, Holandish... North Europe (Finland, Norway and other scandinavian countries), Turkey, Poland and some others are based in roman alphabet, but they have some special characters (specially vocals), but in my opinion they should accept the case sensitive as well.
Regards. -------- M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpfull answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Sounded mocking to me and then he seemed to demand more. Seemed in tune with his past performance here.

Unfamiliar with the past performance. BTW, it wasn't me that gave you a negative vote. Didn't think that was really warranted. :rolleyes:

He's been called on his behavior here a number of times in the past by the regulars. He seems to think people are here just to serve his pleasure. I had already started to write the reply to his question when I realized it was him and nearly deleted it, the original question that is. I stand by my smackdown and if the 1 votes come, so be it. :|

Though I mainly code in pure winapi, I hope you have some unicode fucntion for same proably something like MakeUpperW() and MakeLowerW(). Actually if you add 65 to a uppercase letter it becomes lower case letter or subtract 65, it becomes the opposite.
