Convert byte string to hexadecimal
Most Sirius $functions have been deprecated in favor of Object Oriented methods. The OO equivalent for the $Lstr_C2X function is the StringToHex function.
This function converts a byte string into its hexadecimal encoding. It is identical to $C2X (see the Rocket Model 204 User Language Manual), except it is longstring capable.
The $Lstr_C2X function accepts one argument and returns a string result which is the hexadecimal encoding of that argument.
The first argument is a longstring.
The returned value is the hexadecimal encoding of the argument string.
Syntax
%CODED = $Lstr_C2X(string)
%CODED is set to the hexadecimal encoding of string
Usage notes
- $Lstr_X2C is the inverse of $Lstr_C2X.
- This $function is new in Version 6.8 of the Sirius Mods.
Example
The following code would print D985844099A494, which is the hexadecimal representation of the EBCDIC characters "Red rum".
PRINT $Lstr_C2X('Red rum')
