(Alpha and I64 only.) The Copy Source String Passed by Reference to Destination String routine copies a source string passed by reference to a destination string, passed by descriptor. Format LIB$SCOPY_R_DX_64 quad-integer-source-length ,source-string ,destination-string
1 – Returns
OpenVMS usage:cond_value type: longword (unsigned) access: write only mechanism: by value
2 – Arguments
quad-integer-source-length OpenVMS usage:quadword_unsigned type: quadword (unsigned) access: read only mechanism: by reference Length of the source string in bytes. The quad-integer-source- length argument is the address of an unsigned quadword that contains the length of the source string. source-string OpenVMS usage:char_string type: character string access: read only mechanism: by reference Source string to be copied to the destination string by LIB$SCOPY_R_DX_64. The source-string argument is the address of this source string. destination-string OpenVMS usage:char_string type: character string access: write only mechanism: by descriptor Destination string to which the source string is copied. The destination-string argument contains the address of a descriptor pointing to this destination string.
