C Data Type Definition
typedef struct NUMBER
{
int length;
short scale;
BYTE mantissa[NUMBER_MAX_MANTISSA_SIZE];
} NUMBER;
Usage
The layout of NUMBER is the same as that of the NUMBER data type when transferred to or from the client: a two byte scale followed by the significand. The maximum length is 19.
Here is an example using NUMBER in a UDF definition and C function declaration.
