It seems like the MinGW-w64 headers provide a declaration for strlwr_l but
it doesn't really work. On MSDN I do not see anything about that function,
but I do see the similarly named function _strlwr_l.
_strlwr_l is defined in libmsvcrt.a, but it is not mentioned in the
MinGW-w64 headers. That seems like a bug that the maintainers would
probably accept a patch for.
If I provide an appropriate declaration for it, then I can use it in a
simple C program:
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
_SECIMP char *_strlwr_l(char *, _locale_t);
int main() {
char buffer[64] = "Tom\0\0";
_strlwr_l(buffer, 0);
printf("%s\n", buffer);
}
I hope this helps!
