HexToBin function deprecated
Convert a hexadecimal string to a binary buffer.
Declaration
function HexToBin(HexValue: PAnsiChar; BinValue: PAnsiChar;
BinBufSize: Integer): IntegerDescription
HexToBin scans the hexadecimal string representation in
HexValue and transforms every 2 character hexadecimal
number to a byte and stores it in
BinValue. The buffer size is
the size of the binary buffer. Scanning will stop if the size of the binary
buffer is reached or when an invalid character is encountered. The return
value is the number of stored bytes.Errors
No length checking is done, so if an invalid size is specified, an exception may follow.
