Purpose
Case-sensitive function to compare two strings
Syntax
STRCMP(<expC1>,<expC2>)
See Also
AT(), CHROVERLAP(), GETGID(), GETUID(), STRCASECMP(), STRCOMPARE(), STREXTRACT(), SUBSTR()
Description
The STRCMP() function compares two strings, character by character, and returns a numeric value as follows:
| Return Value | Description | 
|---|---|
| -1 | <expC1> is less than <expC2> | 
| 0 | <expC1> and <expC2> are identical | 
| 1 | <expC1> is greater than <expC2> | 
The STRCMP() function does a case-sensitive comparison.  The STRCASECMP() function can be used for case-insensitive comparison.
Example
cUSERPRIVS = [YYYNNYNN] if strcmp(cUSERPRIVS,'NNNNNNNYN')= 0 SysMaint() else return endif
