change ascii value to characters

is there any way to change ascii value to characters in apex class?

Hi,

 

There is no any direct method exist to convert the ASCII to character. If you want to convert the ASCII to character you will have to create a map in which assign the ASCII value to the key value and the character to the value of the value.

 

 For example

 

Map<Integer, String> ASCIIMap = new Map<Integer, String> ();

 

                ASCIIMap.put(65,'A');

                ASCIIMap.put(66,'B');

                ASCIIMap.put(67,'C');

 

 

For the alternative you can use the JavaScript method on the VF page to convert the ASCII to Character.

For this follow the below link

 Hi,


You can append the JavaScript between the lists where you want to put the field value. For the reference use below code

 


----- VF page --------

<apex:page controller="checkcontact">
<apex:form >
  <apex:pageBlock >
      <apex:pageBlockTable value="{!con}" var="conlist">
         
      <apex:column >
          <apex:facet name="header">Name</apex:facet>
          <script> var conname='{!conlist.name}'; if(conname=='Edna Frank') { document.write('hhhhh'); } else { document.write(conname); } </script>
            
      </apex:column>
      
             <apex:column >
          <apex:facet name="header">Email</apex:facet>
            {!conlist.Email}
      </apex:column>
      
      
      </apex:pageBlockTable>
  
  
  </apex:pageBlock>
  </apex:form>
</apex:page>

----- Apex controller --------

public class checkcontact
{
    public list<contact> con {get;set;}
    public boolean cc{get;set;}
    public checkcontact()
    {
        con=new list<contact>();
        cc=true;
        con=[select name,email from contact];
    }

}
