cwbDT_Bin2ToASCII6

Syntax

 
unsigned int CWB_ENTRY cwbDT_Bin2ToASCII6(
                             char *target,
                             char *source);

Parameters

char * target - output

Pointer to the target (6 byte) area.

char * source - input

Pointer to the source (2 byte integer).

Return Codes

The following list shows common return values.

CWB_OK

Successful Completion.

CWB_INVALID_POINTER

NULL pointer was passed by caller.

Usage

The source data is assumed to be stored with the Most significant Byte first. This is the format that the iSeries server uses and is the opposite of the format used by the Intel^® x86 processes.
