SysLibStr E

This library provides functions for string operations in CODESYS. It includes functions for comparing strings like SysStrCmp, copying strings with SysStrCpy, and getting the length of a string with SysStrLen. SysStrCmp compares two strings and returns a value indicating if string1 is less than, equal to, or greater than string2. SysStrCpy copies one string to another and returns a pointer to the target string.

The Library SysLibStr.lib


This library provides functions for string operations. If the target system is supporting the functionality, the
following functions can be used. The execution is synchronous.

to compare strings:

• SysStrCmp

• SysStrCmpI

• SysStrCmpN

• SysStrCmpNI

to copy strings:

• SysStrCpy

or to to retrieve the length of a string:

• SysStrLen

SysStrCmp

This function of type DINT compares lexicographically two strings and returns one of the following values:

Return value < 0 String1 smaller than String2


Return value = 0 String1 = String2
Return value > 0 String1 bigger als String2
Input-Variable Data type Description
dwString1 STRING first String
dwString2 STRING second String

SysStrCmpI

This function of type DINT checks whether two strings are identical and returns one of the following
values:

Return value < 0 String1 smaller than String2


Return value = 0 String1 = String2
Return value > 0 String1 bigger than String2

Input-Variable Data type Description


dwString1 STRING first String
dwString2 STRING second String

SysStrCmpN

This function of type DINT compares the size of two strings, whereby a defined number of characters
counted from the beginning of the string will be considered.

One of the following values will be returned:

Return value < 0 String1 smaller than String2


Return value = 0 String1 = String2
Return value >0 String1 bigger than String2
Input-Variable Data type Description
sString1 STRING first String
sString2 STRING second String
diChars DINT Number of places, for which – counted from the beginning of the
string – the size of the strings should be compared

SysStrCmpNI

This function of type DINT checks whether a defined number of characters of two strings (starting at the
beginning of the string) are identical. One of the following return values will show the result:

Return value < 0 String1 smaller than String2


Return value = 0 String1 = String2
Return value > 0 String1 bigger than String2
Input-Variable Data type Description
sString1 STRING first String
sString2 STRING second String
diChars DINT Number of places, for which – counted from the beginning of the
string – should be checked whether they are identic in both strings

SysStrCpy

This function of type DWORD copies one string (Str1) to another (Str2). It will return a pointer to the target
string Str2.
Input-Variable Data type Description
sString1 STRING String, to which you want to copy (target)
sString2 STRING String, which should be copied (source)

SysStrLen

This function of type DINT acquires the length of a string. It will return the number of characters, excluding
the "terminal NULL".
Input-Variable Data type Description
sString1 STRING String, the length of which should be checked
