l64a_r Subroutine

AIX Version 4.3 Base Operating System and Extensions Technical Reference, Volume 1

Converts base-64 long integers to strings.

Thread-Safe C Library (libc_r.a)

#include <stdlib.h>

int l64a_r (Convert, Buffer, Length)
long Convert;
char *Buffer;
int Length;

The l64a_r subroutine converts a given long integer into a base-64 string.

For base-64 characters, the following ASCII characters are used:

The l64a_r subroutine places the converted base-64 string in the buffer pointed to by the Buffer parameter.

Convert	Specifies the long integer that is to be converted into a base-64 ASCII string.
Buffer	Specifies a working buffer to hold the converted long integer.
Length	Specifies the length of the Buffer parameter.

0	Indicates that the subroutine was successful.
-1	Indicates that the subroutine was not successful. If the l64a_r subroutine is not successful, the errno global variable is set to indicate the error.

If the l64a_r subroutine is not successful, it returns the following error code:

EINVAL

The Buffer parameter value is invalid or too small to hold the resulting ASCII string.

These subroutines are part of Base Operating System (BOS) Runtime.

Programs using this subroutine must link to the libpthreads.a library.
