Copy Bytes Left-Adjusted (CPYBLA)


Op Code (Hex) Operand 1 Operand 2

10B2 Receiver Source

Operand 1: Character variable scalar, numeric variable scalar, data-pointer-defined character scalar, or data-pointer-defined numeric scalar.

Operand 2: Character scalar, numeric scalar, data-pointer-defined character scalar, or data-pointer-defined numeric scalar.

Description  The logical string value of the source operand is copied to the logical string value of the receiver operand (no padding done). The operands can be either character or numeric. Any numeric operands are interpreted as logical character strings.

The length of the operation is equal to the length of the shorter of the two operands. The copying begins with the two operands left-adjusted and proceeds until the shorter operand has been copied.

Substring operand references that allow for a null substring reference (a length value of zero) may be specified for operands 1 and 2. The effect of specifying a null substring reference for either operand is that no result is set.

If either operand is a character variable scalar, it may have a length as great as 16,776,191 bytes.
