The decimal value of the binary representation of the byte is loaded. For example, the input character x"1C" is loaded as 28. The length of a BYTEINT
field is always 1 byte. If POSITION
(start:end)
is specified, then end
is ignored. (The data type is UNSIGNED CHAR
in C.)
An example of the syntax for this data type is:
(column1 position(1) BYTEINT, column2 BYTEINT, ... )
