Input-Transformation

Draft MDC Standard

7.1.3.1.1 Input-Transformation

^$Character( charsetexpr1 , expr1 V "INPUT" , charsetexpr2 ) = expr2 V algoref

    algoref::=



emptystring
$ $ labelref
$ externref
$ functionname




    emptystring::= a string of zero length

This node specifies the input-transformation algorithm which is performed on a string in the process Character Set Profile charsetexpr1 when it is retrieved from a global variable or routine which uses charsetexpr2 or transmitted from a device using charsetexpr2. Let transform be the value of expr2. transform specifies the algorithm by which this translation is accomplished, if no input-transformation algorithm is defined, an empty-string value is used. The conversion of the string old to the string New using the input-transformation algorithm transform may be evaluated by executing:

("S New="_transform_"(old)")
