You could try StrAToI in a loop. Something like,
char nextChStr[2],
*numberStr;
long number = 0;
// allocate memory for numberStr and initialize.
while (*numberStr != '\0') {
StrNCopy (nextChStr, numberStr, 1);
number *= 16;
if (*nextChStr > '9') // doesn't do error checking
switch (*nextChStr) {
case 'a':
case 'A':
number += 10;
break;
etc.
}
else
number += StrA (nextChStr);
numberStr++;
}
You'll have to refine it, but hope it helps.

Subject: strtol function
Greetings. Has anyone created an alternative to the standard C function
strtol which isn't supported by the Palm OS? I trying to convert a routine
to manipulate hexidecimal character strings to run on the Palm but I can't
get there. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Steve
