$System.Util.DecimalToHex

Question

Ruiyan Yu · May 2, 2022

Hi,

Doc: classMethode DecimalToHex(decimal As %String) as %String
Converts a decimal string to a hexadecimal string.

w !,$System.Util.DecimalToHex(42) > 2A

w !,$zhex(42) > 2A

w !,$System.Util.DecimalToHex(0) is empty

w !,$System.Util.DecimalToHex("0") is empty

w !,$System.Util.DecimalToHex("00") is empty

w !,$zhex(0) > 0

Is the empty string really the intended output?

Best regards

Both still return 1 character for numbers up to 16

II would recommend this way, instead

$Translate($Justify($Zhex(dec),2)," ", 0)

2 0
