Error description
Environment: Rational Business Developer - Enterprise Generation Language v7.1.0.2 When a HEX argument is passed to VGLib.concatenateWithSeparator (and possibly other similar funct ions), the HEX argument is being expanded into a double-length s tring of hex digits, rather than being left in its original bina ry form. This behavior is inconsistent with VAGen, which processed such arguments correctly. The following code snippet demonstrates the problem: The above EGL code produces output of: crlf hex(4) = x'0d0a'; ch1 char(12) = 'HELLO'; ch2 char = (2) = 'THERE'; VGLib.concatenateWithSeparator (ch1,ch2,crlf); sysLib.writeStdout(ch1); HELLO0D0ATHE instead of HELLO THERE
Local fix
