LoadString (Win32)

/** An enhanced version of the Win32 API's LoadString() function.  LoadString() can only handle up to    255 characters in a string resource.  String resources can contain much longer strings than this, but    LoadString() can't.  This function handles any size strings.
    If lpszBuff is NULL, LoadStringEx() returns the size of the buffer required to hold the string resource.@param hInst [in]
The module handle of the EXE or DLL which contains the string resource@param wID [in]
The ID of the resource to retrieve@param lpszBuff [out]
The resulting string resource@param uLen [in]
The maximum length of lpszBuff@return LPTSTR
The value pointed to by lpszBuff, or if lpszBuff is NULL, returns the length of the string resource.**/LPTSTR LoadStringEx(HINSTANCE hInst,UINT wID, LPTSTR lpszBuff, int uLen, LPCTSTR pszType){  USES_CONVERSION;  UINT    block;  UINT    num = 0;  UINT    i;  HRSRC   hRC = NULL;  HGLOBAL hgl = NULL;  LPWSTR  str = NULL;  if (lpszBuff) lpszBuff[0] = 0;  if (pszType == RT_STRING)  {    block = (wID >> 4) + 1;   // Compute block number.    num = wID & 0xF;      // Compute offset into block.  }  else block = wID;  hRC = FindResourceEx(hInst,pszType,MAKEINTRESOURCE(block),MAKELANGID(LANG_NEUTRAL, SUBLANG_NEUTRAL));  hgl = LoadResource(hInst, hRC);  str = (LPWSTR)LockResource(hgl);  if (str)  {    if (pszType == RT_STRING)    {      for (i = 0; i < num; i++)        str += *str + 1;      if (lpszBuff)        lstrcpyn(lpszBuff,W2T(str+1),min(*str+1,uLen));      else lpszBuff = (LPTSTR)*str;    }    else    {      num = SizeofResource(hInst, hRC);      if (lpszBuff)        lstrcpyn(lpszBuff, A2T((LPSTR)str), min(num+1, (UINT)uLen));      else        lpszBuff = (LPTSTR)num;    }  }  return lpszBuff;}/** Determines the length of a string resource.@param hInst [in]
