C$LogicalComplement

Performs a bitwise logical One's Complement operation on a non-numeric or numeric operand.

When calling this routine, ensure you are using the 1024 calling convention.

Syntax:

CALL "C$LogicalComplement"
[GIVING result]
 USING operand

Parameters:

result: PIC 9(n)
operand: A non-numeric or numeric operand

On Entry:

operand: A non-numeric or numeric operand.

On Exit:

result: The result of the operation or operand.

Comments:

If operand refers to a non-numeric data item, the bitwise logical One’s Complement of the value of operand replaces the value of operand. The value of result is set to a non-zero value if any character of operand is non-zero after the operation completes and zero otherwise.

If operand refers to a numeric data item, the operand is converted, if necessary, to a 32-bit binary integer. The 32-bit binary value is logically One’s Complemented. If the GIVING phrase is specified, the result of this operation is stored in result and the value of operand is not modified. If the GIVING phrase is not specified, the result of this operation is stored in operand.
