Type	Description
String	Returns a codified string. If the received value is null, immediately it will return null as result.

Exceptions

It has been specified an incorrect number of values.

Remarks

Admits as value any convertible data type to array byte: a string, an array of bytes, a node (of a XML or HTML document), a BLOB (Binary Large Object) or a file.

Example

Print a codified string in BASE64.

Copy

<xsql-script name='byte_encode64_sample1'>
    <body>
        <set name='m_data'>Hello world.</set>
        <println>
            <byte.encode type='BASE64'>
                <m_data />
            </byte.encode>
        </println>
    </body>
</xsql-script>

The result will be:

Copy

*SGVsbG8gd29ybGQu

Example

Print a codified string in UC.

Copy

<xsql-script name='byte_encodeUC_sample1'>
    <body>
        <set name='m_data'>Hello world.</set>
        <println>
            <byte.encode type='UC'>
                <m_data />
            </byte.encode>
        </println>
    </body>
</xsql-script>

The result will be:

Copy

Example

Print a codified string in UU.

Copy

<xsql-script name='byte_encodeUD_sample1'>
    <body>
        <set name='m_data'>Hello world.</set>
        <set name='m_encode'>
            <byte.encode type='UU'>
                <m_data />
            </byte.encode>
        </set>

        <println>Encoded text:<string.nl/><m_encode /></println>

        <set name='m_decode'>
            <byte.decode type='UU'>
                <m_encode />
            </byte.decode>            
        </set>

        <println>Decoded text:<string.nl/><m_decode /></println>
    </body>
</xsql-script>

The result will be:

Copy

Encoded text: 
begin 644 encoder.buf
<![CDATA[,2&5L;&\@=V]R;&0N] ]>

end

Decoded text: 
Hello world.
