This function extracts the Nth character of a CHAR or CLOB variable. This function runs much faster than the usual functions such as mid$or seg$ when managing large CLOB data.
Syntax : EXTRACTED_CHARACTER=Xgetchar(CLOB_SOURCE,POSITION)
Parameters:
- CLOB_SOURCE has been declared by using a Clbfile or a Char
- POSITION has been declared by using an Integer
- EXTRACTED_CHARACTER has been declared by using a Clbfile or a Char
Example:
# Find the 10th character in a CLOB
Local Clbfile PI_CHAR(0)
Local Char CHAR10
PI_CHAR=num$(pi) : # contains “3.14158265358979323846264338328”
CHAR10=Xgetchar(PI_CHAR,10) : # Returns “5”
