I can say, somebyte=ASC("x"), but is it possible to quickly assign a two-byte
string to a typical two-byte short?I'm sure this can be done with some lengthy function but (as most programmers should) I have a need for efficiency. I'm not concerned with character set mishaps for people with different language settings, as the app will be virtualized in a strict environment. Also in general I am extremely interested in how to quickly assign values from one datatype to a different one. Does GAMBAS have a convention for this outside of functions like ASC? ----- Kevin Fishburne, Eight Virtues www: http://sales.eightvirtues.com http://sales.eightvirtues.com e-mail: mailto:sa...@eightvirtues.com sa...@eightvirtues.com phone: (770) 853-6271 -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/someshort%3D%22xy%22-returns-%22Wanted-short%2C-got-string-instead%22-tp29715645p29715645.html Sent from the gambas-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances and start using them to simplify application deployment and accelerate your shift to cloud computing. http://p.sf.net/sfu/novell-sfdev2dev _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user
