Hi,
I am trying to use the ExecuteScript Apache NiFi processor to decode some
hexadecimal binary data in 2's complement form, and I'd like to use a
relatively simple solution, but with python I ran into a strange bug.
The sample python code I tried to execute is the following:
import ctypes
ctypes.c_int16(int("e675", 16)).value
The value of this funciton call in a usual python interpreter is -6,539
(which I need, and according to the documentation is the correct return
value) but in the NiFi processor, it returns 58,977.
I know I could implement a function which does this job, but I'd like to
use it in more than one processor, and the simpler it is, the less buggy it
might get.
Regards,
Máté
