#STRING_BYTES
Return a string of bytes from a portion of a source string, without regard for multi-byte characters in a UTF8 string. This operates on a string as a byte stream, not a character stream.
Prototype
#STRING_BYTES($string, $start = 0, $length = NULL)
Parameters
- string - The input string.
- start - Zero-based byte offset into string where returned substring should start.
- length - Length in bytes from the start where returned substring should end. NULL will return all the way to the end of the input string.
Return
Returns a new string of bytes from the input string based on the specified start and length.
Example
#/ Display "is some"
#LOCAL($Text, "This is some text.")
#STRING_BYTES($Text, 5, 7)
