Data Types and Data Objects in Release 7.40


1. New predefined ABAP type int8



Modification 1

New Predefined ABAP Type int8

The new predefined data type int8 enables 8-byte integers with signs to be declared. The associated data type in ABAP Dictionary was introduced with the name INT8.

The value range of the new data type is -9.223.372.036.854.775.808 to +9.223.372.036.854.775.807.

Apart from the extended value range, the new data type has the same properties as the existing data type i for 4-byte integers. The required alignment for data objects of the type int8 is 8 and the output length is 20.

A new calculation type has been introduced for the new predefined data type int8, situated between i and p in the hierarchy.

Note

The data types b, s, i, and int8 provide a complete set of data types for single-byte, 2-byte, 4-byte, and 8-byte integers. The types b and s for short integers are internal, however, and cannot be specified directly in ABAP programs. Instead they have to be specified by using the predefined types INT1 and INT2 from ABAP Dictionary. These types do not have their own calculation type.
