Arguments

 

varying-input-value

   OpenVMS usage:varying_arg
   type:         unspecified
   access:       read only
   mechanism:    by reference

   Unsigned byte, word, or longword that OTS$CVT_L_TO converts to
   an unsigned decimal representation in an ASCII text string.
   (The value of the input-value-size argument determines whether
   varying-input-value is a byte, word, or longword.) The varying-
   input-value argument is the address of the unsigned integer.
 

fixed-length-resultant-string

   OpenVMS usage:char_string
   type:         character string
   access:       write only
   mechanism:    by descriptor, fixed length

   Output string that OTS$CVT_L_TO creates when it converts the
   integer value to an octal ASCII text string. The fixed-length-
   resultant-string argument is the address of a descriptor pointing
   to the octal ASCII text string. The string is assumed to be of
   fixed length (CLASS_S descriptor).
 

number-of-digits

   OpenVMS usage:longword_signed
   type:         longword (signed)
   access:       read only
   mechanism:    by value

   Minimum number of digits that OTS$CVT_L_TO generates when it
   converts the integer value to an octal ASCII text string. The
   number-of-digits argument is a signed longword containing the
   minimum number of digits. If it is omitted, the default is 1. If
   the actual number of significant digits in the octal ASCII text
   string is less than the minimum number of digits, OTS$CVT_L_TO
   inserts leading zeros into the output string. If number-of-digits
   is 0 and varying-input-value is 0, OTS$CVT_L_TO writes a blank
   string to the output string.
 

input-value-size

   OpenVMS usage:longword_signed
   type:         longword (signed)
   access:       read only
   mechanism:    by value

   Size of the integer to be converted, in bytes. The input-value-
   size argument is a signed longword containing the number of bytes
   in the integer to be converted by OTS$CVT_L_TO. If it is omitted,
   the default is 4 (longword).
