11.7 UNICODE_COLLATION Protocol
This section defines the Unicode Collation protocol. This protocol is used to allow code running
in the boot services environment to perform lexical comparison functions on Unicode strings for
given languages.

Summary
Is used to perform case-insensitive comparisons of Unicode strings.

} UNICODE_COLLATION_INTERFACE;
Parameters
StriColl Performs a case-insensitive comparison of two Null-terminated
Unicode strings. See the
StriColl() function description.
MetaiMatch Performs a case-insensitive comparison between a Null-
terminated Unicode pattern string and a Null-terminated Unicode
string. The pattern string can use the ‘?’ wildcard to match any
character, and the ‘*’ wildcard to match any substring. See the
MetaiMatch() function description.
StrLwr Converts all the Unicode characters in a Null-terminated
Unicode string to lowercase Unicode characters. See the
StrLwr() function description.
StrUpr Converts all the Unicode characters in a Null-terminated
Unicode string to uppercase Unicode characters. See the
StrUpr() function description.
FatToStr Converts an 8.3 FAT file name using an OEM character set to a
Null-terminated Unicode string. See the
FatToStr() function
description.
