ingres_field_type() returns the
type of a field in a query result, or
FALSE on failure. Examples of types returned are
"IIAPI_BYTE_TYPE", "IIAPI_CHA_TYPE", "IIAPI_DTE_TYPE",
"IIAPI_FLT_TYPE", "IIAPI_INT_TYPE", "IIAPI_VCH_TYPE". Some of
these types can map to more than one SQL type depending on
the length of the field (see
ingres_field_length()). For example "IIAPI_FLT_TYPE"
can be a float4 or a float8. For detailed information, see
the Ingres/OpenAPI User Guide - Appendix C.
index is the number of
the field and must be between 1 and the value given by
ingres_num_fields().
