Error converting string to int

[Josemar]

Hello.

When I try to convert a string that contains a date and time:

Code: Select all

Define txt$  = "20230313143030"
Define num.q = Val(txt$)
Debug num

I see that it runs fine in Windows 10 64 bits... and in Widows XP 32 bits, it runs too, I'm surprised
The problem is compiling in MacOS (chip intel, OS Monterrey, PB 6,01 LTS) , it prints 12663CA0EAF6

Is it a bug, or a limitation of Mac version of PureBasic?

The value of num.q is correct - no bug I think. 12663CA0EAF6 is hex and = 20230313143030.

To ensure the output number format from Debug use either Str() or Hex().

You can set which format the debug output should have.
Certainly set in Preferences

Thanks, but I have doubts... Is correct that Val() returns an hexadecimal instead a integer value?
Executing that in Windows, it returns an integer.

Thanks mk-soft . Just this was my problem, I was set preferences for debugger in Hex (I didn't remember this)

Solve, thanks a lot and sorry for my mistake
