Using %Dec and %Int instead of atoi

Hi list,

 

Until yesterday, we still had 1 client under V5R1M0.  Finally he moved
to V5R3M0, so now we don't have to compile our programs to target
release V5R1M0.

 

Until now, we used the C-function "atoi" to convert character fields to
numeric, because %Int and %Dec couldn't be used for V5R1M0.

Are there any disadvantages (or benefits) in the use of %Int and %Dec
instead of atoi ?
