Re: RFE for BIFs to convert upper/lower case

Hi,

I submitted an RFE to include BIFs for uppercase/lowercase conversion. BIF
%xlate is very suboptimal. And making a service program procedure utilizing
the IBM i API for this is not for most RPG programmers. Besides every PL i
know has this. And RPG also has %int and %char etc, so why not %toupper and
%tolower.

Please vote for RFE 144919.


There is already an RFE 92799 for %upper and %lower. Your RFE will get closed as a duplicate.

Please vote for 92799 instead.
