How to translate an internal DECFLOAT value into a visual format? DB2 Administration Guide: “Convert and return a DECFLOAT representation of a number or string representation of a number”, (Appendix A. Writing exit routines).

There is an example there:

Internal Format              DFP Format                String Representation

D8F77D00000000000C    222C000000001E80     +7.500  

  

They do not explain, how to convert. Can anybody help, please? Thanks
