This built-in function is used to encode a value argument into a bitstring.
Related keywords:
| encvalue( value_part [, encoding_info [, dynamic_encoding]] ) return bitstring; | 
Example 1:
type float MyFloat with { encode "RAW" }
var MyFloat f := 1.1;
var bitstring bs := encvalue(f);
This will store the "RAW" encoded form of the float value 1.1 into the bitstring variable bs.
Example 2:
type record MyRecord {
   integer num,
   charstring str
}
with {
   encode "XML";
   encode "JSON";
}
var MyRecord r := { num := 3, str := "abc" };
var bitstring bs := encvalue(r, "", "JSON");
This will store the "JSON" encoded form of the record value { num := 3, str := "abc" } into the bitstring variable bs.
