Decodes a string from a Base64 representation
string uBase64Decode(input)
The string to decode
uBase64Decode("QSBzZWNyZXQ=") // returns "A secret"
Encodes a string into a Base64 representation
string uBase64Encode(input)
The string to encode.
uBase64Encode("A secret") // returns "QSBzZWNyZXQ="
Converts a date string into the default or a custom date format.
The function handles dates from 1582 to present day. If the date cannot be converted, the result string is empty.
string uConvertDate(datestring, inputformat [, outputformat])
The date string to convert
The date/time format of the input string
The desired output format. If omitted, the default
format is y-M-D H:N:S.
Convert date strings into a different formats:
uConvertDate("2005-06-27 00:00:00","y-M-D H:N:S","D mY") // returns "27 JUN 05"
uConvertDate("27 JUN 05", "D m Y") // returns "2005-06-27 00:00:00"
Sybase recommends you to provide input data for all the fields required in the output data. Having fields in the output data for which no input data has been provided, can lead to unexpected results. For example, if you require hours, minutes, and seconds fields in the output data, your input data should be something similar to this:
uConvertDate("27 JUN 05", "D m Y", "y-m-D 00:00:00") // returns "2005-06-27 00:00:00"
The function uConvertDate converts a date
string into a different format using a source and a destination
format string. The first parameter is the date string to be converted.
The second parameter is a format string, specifying the date format
of the input date (see list below). The outputformat parameter is optional;
If omitted the date is converted using the format y-M-D
H:N:S. The function handles dates from 1582
to present day. If the date cannot be converted, the result string
is empty.
