From C to Delphi - some problem

[WojTec]

I want to train translate form C to Delphi. Here is function in C (from Zint project):

Code:

int code32(struct zint_symbol *symbol, unsigned char source[], int length)
{ /* Italian Pharmacode */
   int i, zeroes, error_number, checksum, checkpart, checkdigit;
   char localstr[10], risultante[7];
   long int pharmacode, remainder, devisor;
   int codeword[6];
   char tabella[34];
   
   /* Validate the input */
   if(length > 8) {
      strcpy(symbol->errtxt, "Input too long");
      return ZERROR_TOO_LONG;
   }
   error_number = is_sane(NEON, source, length);
   if(error_number == ZERROR_INVALID_DATA) {
      strcpy(symbol->errtxt, "Invalid characters in data");
      return error_number;
   }
   
   /* Add leading zeros as required */
   zeroes = 8 - length;
   memset(localstr, '0', zeroes);
   strcpy(localstr + zeroes, (char*)source);
   
   /* Calculate the check digit */
   checksum = 0;
   checkpart = 0;
   for(i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
      checkpart = ctoi(localstr[i * 2]);
      checksum += checkpart;
      checkpart = 2 * (ctoi(localstr[(i * 2) + 1]));
      if(checkpart >= 10) {
         checksum += (checkpart - 10) + 1;
      } else {
         checksum += checkpart;
      }
   }
   
   /* Add check digit to data string */
   checkdigit = checksum % 10;
   localstr[8] = itoc(checkdigit);
   localstr[9] = '\0';
   
   /* Convert string into an integer value */
   pharmacode = atoi(localstr);

   /* Convert from decimal to base-32 */
   devisor = 33554432;
   for(i = 5; i >= 0; i--) {
      codeword[i] = pharmacode / devisor;
      remainder = pharmacode % devisor;
      pharmacode = remainder;
      devisor /= 32;
   }
   
   /* Look up values in 'Tabella di conversione' */
   strcpy(tabella, "0123456789BCDFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZ");
   for(i = 5; i >= 0; i--) {
      risultante[5 - i] = tabella[codeword[i]];
   }
   risultante[6] = '\0';
   /* Plot the barcode using Code 39 */
   error_number = c39(symbol, (unsigned char*)risultante, strlen(risultante));
   if(error_number != 0) { return error_number; }
   
   /* Override the normal text output with the Pharmacode number */
   ustrcpy(symbol->text, (unsigned char*)"A");
   uconcat(symbol->text, (unsigned char*)localstr);
   
   return error_number;
}

Now what I did:

Delphi-Quellcode:

const
  tabella = '0123456789BCDFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZ';
var
  localstr: string;
  checksum, checkpart, I, pharmacode, devisor, remainder: Integer;
  codeword: array [1..5] of Integer;
  risultante: array [1..5] of Char;
begin
  localstr := '84560146';

   checksum := 0;
   checkpart := 0;

  for I := 0 to 3 do
  begin
    Inc(checksum, StrToInt(localstr[i+1 * 2]));
    checkpart := 2 * (StrToInt(localstr[(i * 2) + 2]));
      if checkpart >= 10 then
      Inc(checksum, (checkpart - 10) + 2)
      else
      Inc(checksum, checkpart);
      ;
  end;

  localstr := localstr + IntToStr(checksum mod 10);
  ShowMessage(localstr);

  pharmacode := StrToInt(localstr);
  devisor := 33554432;
   for I := 5 downto 1 do
  begin
      codeword[i] := pharmacode div devisor;
      remainder := pharmacode mod devisor;
      pharmacode := remainder;
      devisor := devisor div 32;
   end;

   for i := 5 downto 1 do
      risultante[5 - i] := tabella[codeword[i]];
   ;

  for I := 1 to 5 do
    Caption := Caption + risultante[I]
  ;
end;

Up to ShowMessage() is ok, but next is some bug, I think with indexes. Could you help find this bug?

Also I'm not satisfacted with my version of first for loop, because I added +2 (in original is +1), could you suggest better version, please?

Your arrays go from 1 to 5, so code like this won' t do it:

Zitat:

Delphi-Quellcode:

for i := 5 downto 1 do
      risultante[5 - i] := tabella[codeword[i]]; //5 - 5 = 0, there is no index 0 in risultante

[WojTec]

So, C for working 5..1 or 5..0?

Code:

for(i = 5; i >= 0; i--)

Declaration

Code:

int codeword[6];

mean

Code:

array [0..5]

or what?

[DeddyH]

AFAIK yes. But maybe you are looking for ReverseString which is quite easier to use.

[WojTec]

Delphi-Quellcode:

const
  tabella = '0123456789BCDFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZ';
var
  localstr: string;
  {...}
  codeword: array [0..5] of Integer;
  risultante: array [0..5] of Char;
begin
  {...}

  pharmacode := StrToInt(localstr); // = let's say 845601463
  devisor := 33554432;
   for I := 5 downto 0 do
  begin
      codeword[i] := pharmacode div devisor;
      remainder := pharmacode mod devisor;
      pharmacode := remainder;
      devisor := devisor div 32;
   end;

   for i := 5 downto 0 do
      risultante[5 - i] := tabella[codeword[i]];
   ;

  Caption := '';
  for I := 0 to 5 do
    Caption := Caption + risultante[I]
  ;
end;

But result is wrong :(

[DeddyH]

Try this:

Delphi-Quellcode:

for i := 5 downto 0 do
  risultante[5 - i] := tabella[codeword[i + 1]];

Strings in Delphi start with index 1, not 0 like in C.

[WojTec]

Delphi-Quellcode:

for I := 5 downto 0 do
  Caption := Caption + tabella[codeword[i] + 1]
;

Haaa :-D Now working :-D
Thank for your great help :-D

[DeddyH]

No problem and sry for the wrong bracket-position :oops:
