SetMultiByteRTLFileSystemCodePage

Set codepage used when interpreting strings from OS single-byte file system APIs

Declaration

Source position: systemh.inc line 1236

procedure SetMultiByteRTLFileSystemCodePage(

  CodePage: TSystemCodePage

);

Description

SetMultiByteRTLFileSystemCodePage sets the codepage used to interpreted strings returned by single-byte OS file system APIs to CodePage.

The effect of this change is that the default codepage used to translate single byte strings obtained from the OS to single-byte codepage-aware strings or multi-byte strings changes, and strings obtained from the codepage-aware file system APIs will be interpreted using the new codepage.

his constant is not used if the file system API of the OS is multi-byte (such as on Windows).

Do not set DefaultRTLFileSystemCodePage directly, as additional actions may need to be done when changing the code page.
