dbaltutype

Description

Return the user-defined datatype for a compute column.

Syntax

DBINT dbaltutype(dbproc, computeid, column)
 
DBPROCESS    *dbproc;
int                      computeid;
int                      column;

Parameters

dbproc

A pointer to the DBPROCESS structure that provides the connection for a particular front-end/server process. It contains all the information that DB-Library uses to manage communications and data between the front end and server.

computeid

The ID that identifies the particular compute row of interest. A SQL select statement may have multiple compute clauses, each of which returns a separate compute row. The computeid corresponding to the first compute clause in a select is 1. The computeid is returned by dbnextrow or dbgetrow.

column

The number of the column of interest. The first column is number 1.

Returns

The user-defined datatype of the specified compute column on success; a negative integer on error.
