The Microsoft runtime library provides many routines that you can use to customize your app for international markets such as:
- locale-related routines
- wide-character routines
- multibyte-character routines
- generic-text routines
For convenience, most locale-related routines are also categorized by what they do.
Multibyte routines and wide-character routines are described alongside their single-byte-character counterparts, when they exist.
ISO646 operator alternatives are also included.
