#3230 closed Bug (Completed)
_WideCharToMultiByte fails with double-byte codepages

Description (last modified by jchd18)
The structure in _WideCharToMultiByte (WinAPI.AU3) needs to use the byte type instead of char, else the result is wrong when the user is requesting output in double-byte codepage (Korean, Japanese, and several other Asian codepages) AND the current default system codepage is also double-byte.
Follows from thread https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/182255-unicode-stringtobinary-for-unsupported-language/?page=1 where both working and failing examples are available.

I reopen this ticket as the solution is now to use and extra parameter whichwill use the byte type leaving char for other cases

So this line:
Local $tMultiByte = DllStructCreate("char[" & $aResult[0] & "]")should read:
Local $tMultiByte = DllStructCreate("byte[" & $aResult[0] & "]")M23
