MBCS_FORMAT_CRT_FIELD_ Procedure
source-length input
INT:value
is the length, in bytes, of the source text string.
maximum-length input
INT: value
is the maximum allowable number of bytes of space usable in the output
destination string.
intermediate input
INT:value
is a logical flag indicating the desired format of the translated data string.
When TRUE, the translated destination CRT field is in pre-EBCDIC format. This is
an intermediate form which yields the final EBCDIC data format after passing the
HP standard ASCII/EBCDIC translation routine. This is the normal form to use for
formatting CRT fields which are then displayed through the HP SNAX access
method.
When FALSE, the translated destination CRT field is in final EBCDIC format upon
completion of this procedure.
terminal-type input
INT:value
indicates the terminal type to receive the formatted data.
