The ifx_int8mul() function
The ifx_int8mul() function multiplies two int8 type values.
Syntax
mint ifx_int8mul(n1, n2, product)
ifx_int8_t *n1;
ifx_int8_t *n2;
ifx_int8_t *product;
- n1
- A pointer to the int8 structure that contains the first operand.
- n2
- A pointer to the int8 structure that contains the second operand.
- product
- A pointer to the int8 structure that contains the product of n1 * n2.
Usage
The product can be the same as either n1 or n2.
Return codes
- 0
- The operation was successful.
- -1284
- The operation resulted in overflow or underflow.
Example
The file int8mul.ec in
the demo directory contains the following sample
program.
/*
* ifx_int8mul.ec *
The following program multiplies two INT8 numbers and
displays the result.
*/
#include <stdio.h>
EXEC SQL include "int8.h";
char string1[] = "480,999,777,666,345";
char string2[] = "80";
char result[41];
main()
{
mint x;
ifx_int8_t num1, num2, prd;
printf("IFX_INT8MUL Sample ESQL Program running.\n\n");
if (x = ifx_int8cvasc(string1, strlen(string1), &num1))
{
printf("Error %d in converting string1 to INT8\n", x);
exit(1);
}
if (x = ifx_int8cvasc(string2, strlen(string2), &num2))
{
printf("Error %d in converting string2 to INT8\n", x);
exit(1);
}
if (x = ifx_int8mul(&num1, &num2, &prd))
{
printf("Error %d in multiplying num1 by num2\n", x);
exit(1);
}
if (x = ifx_int8toasc(&prd, result, sizeof(result)))
{
printf("Error %d in converting product to string\n", x);
exit(1);
}
result[40] = '\0';
printf("\t%s * %s = %s\n", string1, string2, result);
printf("\nIFX_INT8MUL Sample Program over.\n\n");
exit(0);
}
