Compare soundex values of 2 strings.
Declaration
function SoundexCompare(const AText: string; const AOther: string;
ALength: TSoundexLength): IntegerArguments
AText | First string. |
AOther | Second string. |
ALength | Length of soundexes to compare. |
Function result
0 if the soundexes are equal. Negative of the first is smaller as the second, positive otherwise.
Description
SoundexCompare
computes the soundex codes of
AText and
AOther and feeds these to
CompareText.
It will return -1 if the soundex code of
