Buffer (Type de variable)
The Buffer type corresponds to a binary memory area.
<Type Buffer>Decode (Function)
Decodes a character string that was encoded by Encode.
<Type Buffer>Encode (Function)
Encodes a character string or a buffer. To decode the result, simply use Decode.
Left (Function)
Extracts the left part (i.e., the first characters) from a string or buffer.
BufferToPhrase (Function)
Converts a buffer to a mnemonic phrase using the BIP39 algorithm.
Truncate (Function)
Truncates the right part of a string or buffer.
fIsImage (Function)
Determines whether a file on disk or in a buffer corresponds to an image format recognized by WINDEV or WEBDEV.
Encode (Function)
Encodes a character string or a buffer. To decode the result, simply use Decode.
fFind (Function)
Finds a character string or a buffer in a file opened by fOpen.
BufferToURI (Function)
Saves the contents of a buffer to a resource identified by its URI.
Length (Function)
Returns:
  • the length of a string, i.e., the number of characters in the string (including spaces and binary zeros).
  • the size of a buffer, i.e., the number of bytes in the buffer.
<DiskFile variable>.Find (Function)
Finds a character string or a buffer in a file opened by fOpen.
diffCreate (Function)
Compares two buffers and creates a buffer containing the differences between these two buffers.
StringDisplay (Function)
Returns a specific string (or a buffer) to the client browser in response to a request.
BufferToInteger (Function)
Extracts an integer from a binary buffer at a given position.
Middle (Function)
Extracts:
  • a substring from a string starting at a specified position.
  • part of a buffer starting at a specified position.
fSaveBuffer (Function)
Creates and fills a text file with the content of a string or buffer variable.
fAddBuffer (Function)
Adds the content of a buffer at the end of a file.
fLoadBuffer (Function)
Loads the content of an external file (text, image, ...) in a buffer variable.
<ANSI string>.BufferToHexa (Function)
Converts an Ansi or Unicode string into a displayable hexadecimal string (e.g. "4A 5B 00").
Decode (Function)
Decodes a character string that was encoded by Encode.
BufferToHexa (Function)
Converts a buffer to a hexadecimal string (e.g. "4A 5B 00").
Right (Function)
Extracts the last characters from a string or string buffer.
diffApply (Function)
Applies a difference buffer to a specific buffer.
BufferToReal (Function)
Extracts a real from a binary buffer at a given position.
HexaToBuffer (Function)
Converts a string with hexadecimal bytes to a binary buffer.
sComputeCrc32 (Function)
Calculates the Cyclical Redundancy Check (CRC) of buffer.
iPrintImage (Function)
Sends the image file to print to the print buffer.
<ANSI string>.Right (Function)
Extracts the last characters from a string or string buffer.
CertificateExtract (Function)
Extracts a certificate from a signature buffer or from a print duplicate.
Uncompress (Function)
Decompresses a memory block (buffer) that was compressed by Compress.
HTMLToRTF (Function)
Converts an HTML string or an HTML buffer to an RTF string.
SSHRead (Function)
Reads the data found on the output buffer of the SSH session.
<sshSession variable>.Read (Function)
Reads the data found on the output buffer of the SSH session.
PhraseToBuffer (Function)
Returns the buffer encoded in a BIP39 mnemonic phrase.
RepeatString (Function)
Concatenates N number of copies of the same specified string or buffer.
Compress (Function)
Compresses a string or a memory block (buffer) in binary format.
iPrint (Function)
Sends the character string passed as parameter to the print buffer.
iPrintWord (Function)
Sends the character string passed in parameter to the print "buffer".
