1.$ UIC_INT= F$IDENTIFIER("SLOANE","NAME_TO_NUMBER")
$ SHOW SYMBOL UIC_INT
UIC_INT = 15728665 Hex = 00F00019 Octal = 00074000031
$ UIC = F$FAO("!%U",UIC_INT)
$ SHOW SYMBOL UIC
UIC = [360,031]
This example uses the F$IDENTIFIER to convert the member
identifier from the UIC [MANAGERS,SLOANE] to an integer. The
F$IDENTIFIER function shows that the member identifier SLOANE
is equivalent to the integer 15728665. Note that you must
specify the identifier SLOANE using uppercase letters.
To convert this octal number to a standard numeric user
identification code (UIC), use the F$FAO function with the
!%U directive. (This directive converts a longword to a UIC in
named format.) In this example, the member identifier SLOANE is
equivalent to the numeric UIC [360,031].
2.$ UIC_INT = (%O31 + (%X10000 * %O360))
$ UIC_NAME = F$IDENTIFIER(UIC_INT,"NUMBER_TO_NAME")
$ SHOW SYMBOL UIC_NAME
UIC_NAME = "ODONNELL"
This example obtains the alphanumeric identifier associated
with the numeric UIC [360,031]. First, you must obtain the
longword integer that corresponds to the UIC [360,031]. To
do this, place the member number into the low-order word.
Place the group number into the high-order word. Next, use the
F$IDENTIFIER function to return the named identifier associated
with the integer.
