# Load a file that contains this string:  0123456789ABCDEF
$success = $sb->LoadFile("qa_data/txt/remove_chars.txt","utf-8");

# Return "56789A" from the string.
# if removeFlag is 1, the returned string is also removed from the sb.

print $result . "\r\n";
print $sb->getAsString() . "\r\n";

# Output is:
