Classes

A2E

Stores ASCII string as EBCDIC.

Methods:

• A2E(const char *ASCIIString)
  throws Error_Memory

• A2E(const char *ASCIIString, size_t Length)
  throws Error_Memory

• A2E(char *EBCDICDest, const char *ASCIIString, size_t Length)
  Behaves like a function. String is converted and copied but not stored in instance.

• operator char* ()
  Returns EBCDIC string.

• operator const char* ()
  Returns EBCDIC string.

E2A

Stores EBCDIC string as ASCII.

Methods:

• E2A(const char *EBCDICString)
  throws Error_Memory

• E2A(const char *EBCDICString, size_t Length)
  throws Error_Memory

• E2A(char *ASCIIDest, const char *EBCDICString, size_t Length)
  Behaves like a function. String is converted and copied but not stored in instance.

• operator char* ()
  Returns ASCII string.

• operator const char* ()
  Returns ASCII string.

A2U

Stores ASCII string as Unicode.

Methods:

• A2U(const char *ASCIIString)
  throws Error_Memory

• A2U(const char *ASCIIString, size_t Length)
  throws Error_Memory

• A2U(wchar_t *UNICODEDest, const char *ASCII, size_t Length)
  Behaves like a function. String is converted and copied but not stored in instance.

• operator wchar_t* ()
  Returns Unicode string.

• operator const wchar_t* ()
  Returns Unicode string.

U2A

Stores Unicode (Latin-1) string as ASCII.

Methods:

• U2A(const wchar_t *UNICODEString)
  throws Error_Memory

• U2A(const wchar_t *UNICODEString, size_t Length)
  throws Error_Memory

• U2A(char *ASCIIDest, const wchar_t *UNICODE, size_t Length)
  Behaves like a function. String is converted and copied but not stored in instance.

• operator char* ()
  Returns ASCII string.

• operator const char* ()
  Returns ASCII string.

Functions

EBCBIC to ASCII

char e2a(char e)

converts EBCDIC character to ASCII.

estr2astr(char *Dest, const char *Src)

Converts null-terminated string. The user is responsible for the allocation of Dest.

emem2amem(void *Dest, const void *Src, size_t Length)

Copies and converts memory of length Length and from Src to Dest.

ASCII to EBCDIC

char a2e(char a)

converts ASCII character to EBCDIC.

astr2estr(char *Dest, const char *Src)

Converts null-terminated string. The user is responsible for the allocation of Dest.

amem2emem(void *Dest, const void *Src, size_t Length)

Copies and converts memory of length Length and from Src to Dest.

Unicode (Latin-1) to ASCII

char u2a(wchar_t u)

converts Unicode (Latin-1) character to ASCII.

ustr2astr(char *Dest, const wchar_t *Src)

Converts null-terminated string. The user is responsible for the allocation of Dest.

umem2amem(void *Dest, const void *Src, size_t Length)

Copies and converts memory of length Length and from Src to Dest.

ASCII to Unicode

wchar_t a2u(char a)

converts ASCII character to Unicode.

astr2ustr(wchar_t *Dest, const char *Src)

Converts null-terminated string. The user is responsible for the allocation of Dest.

amem2umem(void *Dest, const void *Src, size_t Length)

Copies and converts memory of length Length and from Src to Dest.
