- RtlUnicodeStringToInteger is either mis documented or buggy
- Posted by fat_boy on April 11th, 2006
Code:
RtlInitUnicodeString(&str, buf);
RtlUnicodeStringToInteger(&str, 16, &val1);
WinDbg watch:
str : struct _UNICODE_STRING "123"
val1 : 0x123
I dont know about anyone else but I was expecting 0x7B. Ie, that it
works the same as atoi.
Anyone got any views on this?

I am not sure if you have read the documentation, but 16 means str is
treated as a hexadecimal, thus producing the perfectly correct result of
0x123.

Actually, that was the best advice, because I slept on it, and then
realised what the documentation meant.
- Posted by fat_boy on April 12th, 2006
Yes, it dawned on me at about 4 in the morning what the documentation
meant:
'An optional argument that indicates the base of the number expressed
as a Unicode string'
Which means 'that indicates the base of the Unicode String to be
expressed as a number'.
At least that is how I would write it.

Correct.
Then please set "val1" to 0x7b or 123, and not to 0x123

Val1 is the output, so cant be set.
But, see my comment above regarding the DDK documentation.

With all the flak being thrown around about quoting, it may be that the

Are you really, _really_ sure about that?
