<div><div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Purpose</h4><p>Translates data from packed decimal format
to ASCII numeric data. This function can be used for translating data from
the iSeries™ server
for use in ASCII text format.</p>

<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Syntax</h4><pre>
unsigned int CWB_ENTRY cwbDT_PackedToASCII(
char *target,
char *source,
unsigned long length,
unsigned long decimalPosition);</pre>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Parameters</h4><dl><dt class="dlterm">char * target - output</dt>
<dd>Pointer to the target data.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">char * source - input</dt>
<dd>Pointer to the source data.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">unsigned long length - input</dt>
<dd>Number of bytes of source data to translate.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">unsigned long decimalPosition - input</dt>
<dd>Position of the decimal point.</dd>

<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Return Codes</h4><p>The following list shows common return
values.</p>
<dl><dt class="dlterm">CWB_OK</dt>
<dd>Successful Completion.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">CWB_INVALID_POINTER</dt>
<dd>NULL pointer was passed by caller.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">other</dt>
<dd>Offset of the first untranslated character plus one.</dd>
</dl>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Usage</h4><p>The caller must make sure that there is adequate
space to hold the target information. This function checks that each half-byte
of the packed decimal data is in the range of 0 to 9. The only exception
is the last half-byte which contains the sign indicator. 0 &lt;= decimalPosition &lt;
(length * 2).</p>
