cvcs converts a character code to the STRING that consists of the single character with the code char. area specifies the destination area for the resulting STRING if new STRING text is generated; see Section 29.4.
If char is not in the range 0 to $maxChar, cvcs returns the empty STRING.
Example 32–88. Use of cvcs
| cvcs('A') = cvcs(65) = "A" # assuming the ASCII character set # in which 65 is the code for "A" |
A garbage collection cannot occur during a call to cvcs.
