Returns the result of executing the ICONV() or OCONV() functions on an expression list in the database, synchronously or asynchronously.

 

 

* hasError

(only C)

BOOL*

 

Only in C functions: bool pointer used in the C functions that indicates the return of the function is a system error and must be communicated to the Linkar SERVER

 

* callback

 

OperationAsyncCallbackString

OperationAsyncCallbackLkData

ArrayList

 

 

Return type in asynchronous methods. For further information see ASYNCHRONOUS CALLS

* credentialsOptions

CredentialsOptions

char*

 

Object that defines the necessary data to access the database: Username, Password, EntryPoint, Language, FreeText. In the C Direct Functions, it is a char*

 

* connectionInfo

(only C)

char*

 

Only in C Persistent Functions: string that is returned by the Login function and contains all the necessary connection data. This data is necessary in persistent functions.

* code

string

char*

 

 

The conversion code - subject to DBMS-specifications.

* expression

string

char*

 

The data or expression to convert. This can have MV marks, in which case the conversion will be executed on each value.

 

* conversionOptions

enum CONVERSION_TYPE

char

 

 

 

Indicates the conversion type, input or output: Input=ICONV(); OUTPUT=OCONV().

outputStringType

enum DataFormat.TYPE

typedef uint8_t DataFormatTYPE;

 

 

DataFormat.TYPE.MV

DataFormatTYPE

 

 

Indicates format of data returned : MV, XML or JSON.

customVars

string

char*

 

This is a free text field to send in the transaction. If not empty, subroutine SUB.LK.MAIN.CONTROL.CUSTOM will be called. Add custom code to that subroutine to define special behaviours for some or all transactions.

 

receiveTimeout

Numeric

 

-1

0

 

This is the maximum time in seconds that the client will wait for a response. Use 0 for no timeout. This is a function-specific override : -1 in a Persistent function defaults back to the timeout defined in the LinkarClt constructor.

 

 

This function can generate exceptions.

In COM assemblies, a return value of type String will contain an error message if an error occurs when performing the operation.
