_a2e_dup, _e2a_dup - Convert from ASCII to EBCDIC and EBCDIC to ASCII (BS2000)

&pagelevel(4)&pagelevel

Syntax

#include <ascii_ebcdic.h>

char*_a2e_dup (char* z);

char*_e2a_dup (char* z);

Description

These functions create a new string by taking the string z passed as a parameter and converting it from ASCII to EBCDIC or vice versa. The memory for the new string is allocated by means of malloc(), and it is up to the user to release it. If the available memory is insufficient, NULL is returned as the result. Otherwise, the new string is returned.
The conversion tables are declared as follows:
unsigned char _a2e_tab[256];
unsigned char _e2a_tab[256];

Return val.

New EBCDIC or ASCII string (if successful)

NULL, if there is insufficient memory
