Re: String Conversion

[Charles Wilt <charles.wilt@xxxxxxxxx>]

   I think you might be mis-understanding something somewhere...
   "byte array" is normally used in a Java context (or other OOP
   languages) to differentiate between an a Java String object vs. just an
   array of characters that an RPG or C programmer would think of as a
   "string".
   x'404142' is a ASCII hexadecimal string representation of a byte array
   containing "ABC"
   It'd be a very strange web service that required hex strings...
