Parameters

credentialOptions CredentialOptions: Object with data necessary to access the Linkar Server: Username, Password, EntryPoint, Language, FreeText.
conversionType CONVERSION_TYPE: Indicates the conversion type, input or output: INPUT=ICONV(); OUTPUT=OCONV()
expression String: The data or expression to convert. May include MV marks (value delimiters), in which case the conversion will execute in each value obeying the original MV mark.
code String: The conversion code. Must obey the Database conversions specifications.
customVars String (Optional): Free text sent to the database allows management of additional behaviours in SUB.LK.MAIN.CONTROL.CUSTOM, which is called when this parameter is set.
receiveTimeout Int32 (Optional): Maximum time in seconds that the client will wait for a response from the server. Default = 0 to wait indefinitely.

Return Value

String
The results of the operation.
