Hi everyone!

I am trying to figure out how to get info for the font charset by giving only a font name

In C++ there is a function 'GetCharsetInfo' and there is also CHARSETINFO structure
but I have no idea how to fill the structure in ASM

I hope someone can give me some information about this topic

regards

Use TranslateCharsetInfo to fill the CHARSETINFO structure.

Thanks for your answer revolution but for that function I need to supply that information which I actually need

In a mid time I have found solution for my need:
I call 'EnumFontFamiliesEx' with proper parameters and get the answer at location lpelfe + 09Ch ('western' or 'symbol' and so on)

I appreciate your effort, thanks

regards

Huh, are you sure? The way I read it you only need to supply either the character set value, the code page or the font signature. The TranslateCharsetInfo function fills in the CHARSETINFO structure for you.

No, I just read the CharSet info direct from location
here are the code

EnumFontFamExProc proc lpelfe:ENUMLOGFONTEX , lpntme:NEWTEXTMETRICEX , FontType:DWORD, lParam:LPARAM

mov eax, dword ptr lpelfe;.elfFullName
mov edx,extent
add eax,edx;3ch;9ch
push eax
invoke lstrcmp, Head,eax ; check if it is the same name
.if eax ; not the same name
inc index
pop eax
invoke lstrcpy, Tail,eax
m2m Head,Tail
invoke lstrlen, Tail
inc eax
add Tail,eax
.else
pop eax
.endif
mov eax,rval
ret 16
EnumFontFamExProc endp

and Caller is:

invoke GetDC,NULL
mov mDC,eax
invoke lstrcpy,addr lpLogfont.lfFaceName,addr szWork
mov lpLogfont.lfCharSet, DEFAULT_CHARSET
mov extent,09ch
lea eax,CharsetBuff
mov Head,eax
mov Tail,eax
mov index,0
mov rval,1
invoke EnumFontFamiliesEx, mDC,addr lpLogfont,addr EnumFontFamExProc,0,0;
invoke ReleaseDC, NULL, mDC

invoke lstrcmp,addr CharsetBuff,addr szSymbol
.if eax
mov lf.lfCharSet,ANSI_CHARSET
.else
mov lf.lfCharSet,SYMBOL_CHARSET
.endif
invoke lstrcpy, offset FontName, offset lf.lfFaceName
invoke CreateFontIndirect,addr lf
mov hFont,eax
mov al, lf.lfCharSet
mov charF.bCharSet,al;SYMBOL_CHARSET
invoke SendMessage,hEdit, EM_SETCHARFORMAT, SCF_SELECTION, offset charF

I just uploaded new version of the MDIRichEditor and if you are interestid how is it done have look Combos.asm and also WndProc ".elseif eax = 81"

don't hesitate to ask for more explanation
