Coerces an expression into a TRANS logical code pointer
(LCPTR).
trans (value)
trans:trans (value:any)
- value
An expression to be coerced. All types are acceptable.
Table 11-2 Derivation of the TRANS Bit Pattern
Parameter Type |
Action |
BOOL |
0.1 if TRUE, 0.0 if FALSE. |
U16 U32 SPTR |
Set the SID part to zero. Right justify the original value in the
low-order 32 bits of the offset part with zero fill. |
S16 S32 S64 |
Set the SID part to zero. Right justify the original value in the
low-order 32 bits of the offset part with sign extension. |
LONG Class |
Transfer both parts of the address unchanged. |
EADDR SADDR |
Transfer the SID part unchanged. Transfer the low-order 32 bits of the
offset part. |
STR |
Transfer the ASCII bit pattern for the last eight characters in the
string. Strings shorter than eight characters are treated as if they were
extended on the left with nulls. |
%cmdebug > wl trans(12.304)
TRANS %12.304
Coerce the simple long pointer into a TRANS logical code pointer.
%cmdebug > wl trans(sys(24.630))
TRANS %24.630
The coercion simply changes the type. Note that no complicated
conversion or range checking is performed.
