I'm looking at some code written by a former employee where I work and I'm noticing that he sometimes uses hexadecimal notation, and other times decimal. Since he's long gone I can't ask him why, so I hope someone here could take a look and enlighten me.
command.Parameters.Add("PI_EMPLOYEE_NUM",
OracleDbType.Varchar2, Trim(cn, 50),
ParameterDirection.Input);
command.Parameters.Add("PI_EMPLOYEE_DISPLAY_NM",
OracleDbType.Varchar2, Trim(displayName, 0xff),
ParameterDirection.Input);
command.Parameters.Add("PI_EMPLOYEE_ADDR_TXT",
OracleDbType.Varchar2, Trim(streetAddress, 0xff),
ParameterDirection.Input);
command.Parameters.Add("PI_EMPLOYEE_MAIL_CD",
OracleDbType.Varchar2, Trim(postOfficeBox, 50),
ParameterDirection.Input);
