This is what I have for str_pad:
function strPad(str, length, char) // based on PadString from
cflib.org by Rob Brooks-Bilson ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
{
var pad = repeatString(char, length);
return str & pad;
}
This is what I did for A = array(1732584193, 4023233417, 2562383102,
271733878, 3285377520);
A = arrayNew(1);
A[1] = 1732584193;
A[2] = 4023233417;
A[3] = 2562383102;
A[4] = 271733878;
A[5] = 3285377520;
and this for list(a,b,c,d,e)=A;
a = A[1];
b = A[2];
c = A[3];
d = A[4];
e = A[5];
I am concerned that I will have to go through and change all of the
lower case "a"'s in the function to something else since CFSCRIPT is
case-insensitive and will treat my array "A" the same as the variable
"a".
The PHP list() function doesn't just create a list as would be
expected. Instead, it assigns each variable in the list (a,b,c,d,e) a
value corresponding with the values in the array. that is why there is
an equals operator after the function.
I still need to figure out a replacement for the array_values() and
unpack() PHP functions.
It's coming along though, I think.
