byte-integer-source-string OpenVMS usage:char_string type: character string access: read only mechanism: by descriptor String (EBCDIC) to be translated by LIB$TRA_EBC_ASC. The byte-integer-source-string argument contains the address of a descriptor pointing to this source string. destination-string OpenVMS usage:char_string type: character string access: write only mechanism: by descriptor Destination string (ASCII). The destination-string argument contains the address of the descriptor of this destination string. The LIB$TRA_EBC_ASC routine uses the EBCDIC to ASCII translation table, LIB$AB_EBC_ASC.
