In our best friend Harbour!

HB_URLENCODE()
HB_URLDECODE()

It happen that I am using a _very_ old version of Harbour in a legacy project, so I had to write my own funcs:

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

#define URL_CODE { '%21', '%2A', '%27', '%28', '%29', '%3B', '%3A', '%40', '%26', '%3D', '%2B', '%24', '%2C', '%2F', '%3F', '%25', '%23', '%5B', '%5D' }
#define URL_CHAR { '!'  , '*'  , "'"  , "("  , ")"  , ";"  , ":"  , "@"  , "&"  , "="  , "+"  , "$"  , ","  , "/"  , "?"  , "%"  , "#"  , "["  , "]"   }

FUNCTION urlencode( cString )
   LOCAL cResult, i, nAt, Ch

   cResult:= ''

   FOR i:= 1 To LEN( cString )
      IF ( nAT := aScan( URL_CHAR, Ch:= SubStr( cString, i, 1 ) ) ) > 0
         cResult+= URL_CODE[ nAt ]
      ELSE
         cResult+= Ch
      ENDIF
   NEXT

RETURN cResult

FUNCTION urldecode( cString )
   LOCAL cResult, i, nAt, cH

   cResult:= ''

   FOR i:= 1 To LEN( cString )
      IF ( nAT := aScan( URL_CODE, Ch:= SubStr( cString, i, 3 ) ) ) > 0
         cResult+= URL_CHAR[ nAt ]
         i+= 2
      ELSE
         cResult+= Left( Ch, 1 )
      ENDIF
   NEXT

RETURN cResult

Hello,

It seems that there are encode functions like :

HB_URLENCODE()
HB_URLDECODE()

I the older post above they say that Harbour is older (to old??) and there is a alternatif function written.

I need to use these functions, but anno 04/2017 : witch one do you prefer ?

Hi Marc,

the native Harbour ones, without any doubt! The are updated with the rtl, written in C so the are _faster_. I posted the old ones just in case, for really old projects it may be useful.
