ESQL/C INT8-type functions
Because the binary representation of an INT8 (and mi_int8)
value is a proprietary format for HCL Informix®, you cannot use
standard system functions to perform integer calculations on mi_int8 values.
Instead, the DataBlade
API provides
support for the following categories of Informix
ESQL/C functions on
the INT8 data type.
- Conversion functions
- Arithmetic-operation functions
Any other operations, modifications, or analyses can produce unpredictable results.
