xpfGetDataTypeSize

 
SYNTAX:
 
xpfGetDataTypeSize (dataType                  : INTEGER)                    dataTypeSize              : INTEGER;
 
The xpfGetDataTypeSize function returns the size in bytes of the given datatype. The "dataType" argument should be xpxINTEGER, xpxAGGR, xpxINSTANCE, xpxBOOLEAN, ..etc.
NOTE:
 The size of xpxINSTANCE, and xpxAGGR is currently either 4 (32 bits systems) or 8 (64 bits systems). This may change in future versions of EDM. Hence this function should not be used to decide if the actual Windows system is 32 bits or 64 bits.
