Holds the contents of a variable--a hexadecimal character text string that represents the input argument. This rule accepts both numeric and text type arguments.
Restriction: This topic applies only when the AppMaster Builder AddPack has been installed, and applies only to Windows platforms.
Use this rule for debugging programs. To test if a value is hexadecimal, use &IS-HEX; to convert the hexadecimal value, use the &HEX rules.
Syntax:
&AS-HEX (&variablename)
Alias:
&as-hex (&variablename) &As-Hex (&variablename)
&ashex (&variablename) &AsHex (&variablename)
&ASHEX (&variablename)
Example:
&AS-HEX (1) = "1"
&AS-HEX (2) = "2"
&AS-HEX (-1) = "FFFFFFFF"
&AS-HEX (1024) = "400"
&AS-HEX ("1") = "31"
&AS-HEX ("ABCDEFG") = "41424344454647"
