Rendezvous Datatypes

Rendezvous software supports the datatypes listed in Table 13. (The table lists names from the C and C++ language interfaces; other languages uses analogous names, with variations for language syntax.)

Table 13 Wire Format Datatypes (Sheet 1 of 2)

Wire Format Type	Type Description	Notes
Special Types
TIBRVMSG_MSG	Rendezvous message	Composite of fields
TIBRVMSG_DATETIME	Rendezvous datetime
TIBRVMSG_OPAQUE	opaque byte sequence
TIBRVMSG_STRING	character string	NULL-terminated.
TIBRVMSG_XML	XML data (byte sequence)
Scalar Types
TIBRVMSG_BOOL	boolean	TIBRV_FALSE TIBRV_TRUE
TIBRVMSG_I8	8-bit integer
TIBRVMSG_I16	16-bit integer
TIBRVMSG_I32	32-bit integer
