Hi kx community,

I am running to trouble while decoding msg from ByteBuffer.

The background is that I am consuming live data from solace bus, with live data feed ingested into kdb+, it is not something could be directly cast into character. What I get with the attempt to cast from binary is code like:

"\PAR1\025\004\025\010..."

Could anyone enlighten me how to decode those without routing into a java parser with ByteBuffer?


Thanks a lot.

One of the getPayloadAs* functions may be what you need
