UNICHARS function

Syntax

UNICHARS (dynamic.array)

Description

Use the UNICHARS function to generate a dynamic array of characters from a dynamic array of Unicode values.

dynamic.array is an array of decimal Unicode values separated by system delimiters. If any element of dynamic.array is invalid, an empty string is returned for that element. If dynamic.array evaluates to the null value, null is returned. If any element of dynamic.array is null, null is returned for that element.

The UNICHARS function operates the same way whether NLS mode is enabled or not.

Note: Use BASIC @Variables to generate InfoSphere® DataStage® system delimiters. Do not use the UNICHARS function.
