Byte Array To String
Converts an array of unsigned bytes representing encoded characters into a string using the encoding you specify.
Inputs/Outputs
encoding
The character encoding the node uses to convert the input.
| UTF-8 | Converts the input using UTF-8 encoding. |
| UTF-16 | Converts the input using UTF-16 encoding. |
| Extended ASCII | Converts the input using extended ASCII encoding. |
unsigned byte array
Array of values you want the node to convert.
error in
Error conditions that occur before this node runs.
The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.
Default value: No error
Standard Error Behavior
Many nodes provide an error in input and an error out output so that the node can respond to and communicate errors that occur while code is running. The value of error in specifies whether an error occurred before the node runs. Most nodes respond to values of error in in a standard, predictable way.
| error in does not contain an error | error in contains an error |
|---|---|
| If no error occurred before the node runs, the node begins execution normally.
If no error occurs while the node runs, it returns no error. If an error does occur while the node runs, it returns that error information as error out. |
If an error occurred before the node runs, the node does not execute. Instead, it returns the error in value as error out. |
string
Result of interpreting each array element as an encoded character and forming a string out of those characters.
error out
Error information.
The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.
