[ integer->asString ]
Method
The [integer->asString] method formats the integer as a string. This method replaces the [Integer->SetFormat] tag from Lasso 8.x and earlier. In Lasso 9 integers and decimals have no state, and so they cannot carry around their formatting information.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| -hexaDecimal | Expresses the integer as a hexadecimal value. |
| -padding | Specifies the desired width in character of the output. |
| -padChar | Specifies the character to use to pad the output. Defaults to a space. |
| -padRight | If set to True the output will be padded on the right. By default the output will be padded on the left. |
| -groupChar | Specifies the desired character to use for thousands grouping. Defaults to the empty string so thousands grouping is not performed. |
- Syntax
Integer Value->asString(
-hexadecaim = Boolean Value,
-padding = Integer Value,
-padChar = 'Character Value',
-padRight = Boolean Value,
-groupchar = 'Character Value'
