Have you guys figured out how to get par to print out ascii value of a pdb stored Int?
par is not designed to do that. par is simply a packer and unpacker of database records. With the records unpacked there are many tools that can give you an ascii dump of a file. For example, you could use od:
par x foo.pdb -f record.pdr 0 # extract first record to record.pdr od -xc record.pdr
I've packed my records, as follows: typedef struct { UInt32 *orderQty; Char key[1]; } PackedOnOrder;
But my Int values aren't translated to ascii? They are dumped out as '...' or something similar.
They are dumped as '...' when you use the list option, which is nothing more than a simple audit function. You should use extract to really get at your record data.

Hey all...
Anyone have any fancy-smancy UNIX utilities that dump out ONLY the records from a pdb? As in, without header info and all that fun stuff...
par can be used to do that.
