StrUtils.ResemblesProc Variable

Controls the algorithm used by AnsiResemblesText to determine when two strings are similar. It is the same as AnsiResemblesProc.

Pascal
ResemblesProc: TCompareTextProc = SoundexProc;
C++
TCompareTextProc ResemblesProc = SoundexProc;

The AnsiResemblesText function uses the function assigned to ResemblesProc to determine when two strings should be considered similar. By default, ResemblesProc is set to SoundexProc.  

To make AnsiResemblesText use a different algorithm, you can change ResemblesProc to another function. For example, you can change the number of phonemes compared by using a function that assigns a different length to SoundexSimilar than then default value of 4. Alternately, you can create a function that uses a different algorithm entirely.
