Declaration

Source position: sysstrh.inc line 100

  function AnsiStrLower(Str: PChar) : PChar;

Description

AnsiStrLower converts the PChar Str to lowercase characters and returns the resulting pchar. Note that Str itself is modified, not a copy, as in the case of AnsiLowerCase . It takes into account the operating system language settings when doing this, so special characters are converted correctly as well.

Remark

A widestring manager must be installed in order for this function to work correctly with various character sets. !!!

Errors

None.
