Identifying Genero data types in Java code

Java data types and Genero data types are different. To identify Genero types in Java code, you can use the com.fourjs.fgl.lang.FglTypes class implemented in $FGLDIR/lib/fgl.jar.

You can, for example, identify the data type of a member of an FglRecord object.

You must add $FGLDIR/lib/fgl.jar to the class path in order to compile Java code with com.fourjs.fgl.lang.FglType class.

The com.fourjs.fgl.lang.FglTypes class implements the following:

Table 1. Fields of the com.fourjs.fgl.lang.FglTypes class
Field	Corresponding data type
`final static int ARRAY`	ARRAY object
`final static int BIGINT`	BIGINT
`final static int BOOLEAN`	BOOLEAN
`final static int BYTE`	BYTE
`final static int CHAR`	CHAR
`final static int DATE`	DATE

`final static int DECIMAL`	DECIMAL
`final static int FGL_OBJECT`	An FGL object like `base.Channel`.
`final static int FLOAT`	FLOAT
`final static int INT`	INTEGER
`final static int INTERVAL`	INTERVAL
`final static int JAVA_OBJECT`	A Java object like `java.lang.String`.
`final static int MONEY`	MONEY

`final static int SMALLFLOAT`	SMALLFLOAT
`final static int SMALLINT`	SMALLINT
`final static int STRING`	STRING
`final static int TEXT`	TEXT
`final static int TINYINT`	TINYINT
