StrToInt64Def
Function
Convert a string into an Int64 value with default SysUtils unit
 function StrToInt64Def ( const IntegerString : string; Default : Integer ) : Int64;
Description
The StrToInt64Def function converts an Integer string, IntegerString such as '123' into an Int64 value, with a Default if the conversion fails.
 
It supports +ve and -ve numbers, and hexadecimal numbers, as prefixed by $ or 0x.
Notes
No conversion errors are generated - bad conversions simply result in the Default being returned.

begin
  // No need to catch conversion errors
  A := StrToInt64Def('100 ', 55);    // Trailing blanks are not supported
  WriteLn('Value = '+IntToStr(A));

  A := StrToInt64Def('$FG' , 66);    // 'G' is an invalid hexadecimal digit
