<p>The <strong>xdr_char()</strong> function is a filter primitive that
|
|
translates between C-language characters and their external representation.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>Note</strong>: Encoded characters are not packed and occupy 4 bytes
|
|
each. For strings of characters, consider using the <strong>xdr_string</strong>
|
|
function.</p>
