HYPERSCRIPT, SECS, and XML.

Suppose there is a SECS event, described with HyperScript as follows:

list 'S5F65' = { 
  binary 'BN_0'[1] = 0x40,
  ushort 'UW_1'[1] = 191,
  char 'A_2'[54] = "150205080201FNN2LFNN2_039604N2001Abnormal event occur "
} ;

First we merge the raw SECS data with a descriptor...

list ev = {
  binary code,
  ushort id,
  char reason[80]
} ;
list e = merge ( ev, S5F65 ) ;

And get a more descriptive result:

describe e ;

list 'e' = {
  binary 'code'[1] = {0x40},
  ushort 'id'[1] = {191},
  char 'reason'[54] = { "150205080201FNN2LFNN2_039604N2001Abnormal event occur ",}
};

If we describe it as XML:

xdescribe e ;

<e>
  <code>0x40</code>
  <id>191</id>
  <reason>150205080201FNN2LFNN2_039604N2001Abnormal event occur </reason>
</e>

It can then be packaged in as a SOAP envelope and transport it across the web.
