INTEGER

Table D–6 describes the supported castings in each 4GL parameter mode (INPUT and OUTPUT) between the 4GL INTEGER type and XML Schema.

Table D–6: 4GL data type cast—INTEGER

For this XML Schema type...	In this 4GL parameter mode...	OpenEdge...
string normalizedString	INPUT	Serializes the 4GL parameter into the XML Schema value as if the 4GL STRING( ) function was called on the INTEGER value.
	OUTPUT	De-serializes the XML Schema value as if the INTEGER( ) function was called on string value.
boolean	INPUT	Serializes an INTEGER value of 0 to false and all other values to true.
	OUTPUT	De-serializes a value of false to a 4GL INTEGER value of 0, and de-serializes a value of true to an INTEGER value of 1.
decimal	INPUT	Serializes the 4GL parameter into the SOAP request message according to the XML Schema serialization rules.
	OUTPUT	De-serializes the XML Schema value as if the INTEGER( ) function was called on the serialized 4GL DECIMAL value. This rounds any positions after the decimal point. If the XML Schema decimal value is outside the range of a 4GL INTEGER, OpenEdge raises a run-time error.
float	INPUT	Serializes the 4GL INTEGER value to a float according to the XML Schema rules. Some of the least significant digits of the INTEGER value are lost if the number of digits in the value is large.
	OUTPUT	De-serializes the XML Schema value into a 4GL INTEGER. If the XML Schema value overflows or underflows a 4GL INTEGER, OpenEdge raises a run-time error.
double	INPUT	Serializes the 4GL INTEGER value to a double according to the XML Schema rules.
	OUTPUT	De-serializes the XML Schema value into a 4GL INTEGER. If the XML Schema value overflows or underflows a 4GL INTEGER, OpenEdge raises a run-time error.
integer nonPositiveInteger negativeInteger long nonNegativeInteger unsignedLong unsignedInt positiveInteger	INPUT	Serializes the 4GL parameter into the SOAP request message according to the serialization rules for the XML Schema data type.
	OUTPUT	De-serializes the XML Schema value as if the 4GL INTEGER( ) function was called on the value. If the XML Schema value is outside the valid range of a 4GL INTEGER, OpenEdge raises a run-time error.
int	INPUT	Serializes the 4GL parameter into the SOAP request message according to the XML Schema serialization rules.
	OUTPUT	De-serializes the XML Schema value as if the 4GL INTEGER( ) function was called on the value.
short byte unsignedShort unsignedByte	INPUT	Serializes the 4GL parameter into the SOAP request message according to the serialization rules for the XML Schema data type. If the 4GL INTEGER value is outside the valid range of the XML Schema type, OpenEdge raises a run-time error.
	OUTPUT	De-serializes the XML Schema value as if the 4GL INTEGER( ) function was called on the value.
time	INPUT	Serializes the 4GL parameter into the SOAP request message according to the XML Schema serialization rules without a time zone. The 4GL INTEGER value is treated as the number of seconds since midnight.
	OUTPUT	De-serializes the XML Schema value to the number of seconds since midnight. The conversion loses fractions of seconds. If a time zone is specified in the value, the time is adjusted to the same instant in the local time zone.
