Hi All,
Can we run a while loop for hexadecimal values.
ie.., starting from X'80' to X'FF'.
incrementing the looping value by 1 ( hex value ).
Iam having problems with incrementing the value by 1 Hex value.
Thanks,
Venky

hi RR,
This is a piece of code I have.
DECLARE Start_char INTEGER;
DECLARE end_char INTEGER;
SET Start_char = X'80';
SET End_char = X'FF';
WHILE ( Start_char <= End_char ) DO
--Do Something.
SET Start_char = Start_char + X'01';
END WHILE;
Iam trying to Loop through the Hexadecimal values which are between X'80' and X'FF'
I don't know if I can acheive the above, if anyone of you have come across such situation, please share .....
Thanks,
Venky

First thing...
U cannot declare variable as INT and assign...hex value.
and I dont think so...u can increment a hex value..in ESQL...
but what z ur scenario???..probably we handle in diff way.

Try this :
DECLARE start_char INTEGER;
DECLARE end_char INTEGER;
SET start_char = 0x80;
SET end_char = 0xFF;
WHILE ( start_char <= end_char ) DO
--Do Something.
SET start_char = start_char + 0x01;
END WHILE;
