The NdisAnsiStringToUnicodeString function converts a given counted ANSI string into a counted Unicode string. The translation conforms to the current system locale information.

   _us,
   _as
);

Parameters

_us

A pointer to a caller-allocated buffer in which this function should return the converted Unicode string.

_as

A pointer to the ANSI string to be converted.

Return value

None

Remarks

The caller must allocate storage for both the source and destination strings and release these buffers as soon as the strings are no longer needed. The buffer at DestinationString must be at least twice the size of the buffer at SourceString .
