Re: How to do %LEN(%TRIM(&myStringVariable)) in CL program?

Reggie,

If you want to know the length of the string, create a command with two PARMs

PARM 1 is the string length 5000 define as VARY(*YES)
PARM 2 is a return value *DEC 4 0

IN the CPP receive PARM 1 in avariable with length 5002, use the BIF %bin to 
pull out the first two bytes, return that value.

It is in fact 5 lines of code.

Carel Teijgeler.
