[Gambas-user] Reading hex from a string socket read

[adam krell]

Hi,

I am using the socket component to make a tcp
connnection and read some data.  The data needs to be
decoded from hex.  I'm doing that with this command:

Dim TwoByteCode AS Integer

TwoByteCode = Val(Str$(Asc(Mid$(Buffer,1,1))) &
Str$(Asc(Mid$(Buffer,2,1))))

Is there a more efficient way to do this?  If I am
decoding a long string of data this can really slow
down the program.

Thanks,

Adam
