# Rendezvous Datatypes

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

Wire Format Datatypes

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` |  | `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 |
`TIBRVMSG_``I64` | 64-bit integer |
`TIBRVMSG_``U8` | 8-bit unsigned integer |
`TIBRVMSG_``U16` | 16-bit unsigned integer |
`TIBRVMSG_``U32` | 32-bit unsigned integer |
`TIBRVMSG_``U64` | 64-bit unsigned integer |
`TIBRVMSG_``F32` | 32-bit floating point |
`TIBRVMSG_``F64` | 64-bit floating point |
`TIBRVMSG_``IPADDR32` | 4-byte IP address | Network byte order. String representation is four-part dot-delimited notation.
`TIBRVMSG_``IPPORT16` | 2-byte IP port | Network byte order. String representation is a 16-bit decimal integer.
Array Types
`TIBRVMSG_``I8ARRAY` | 8-bit integer array |
`TIBRVMSG_``I16ARRAY` | 16-bit integer array |

`TIBRVMSG_``I64ARRAY` | 64-bit integer array |
`TIBRVMSG_``U8ARRAY` | 8-bit unsigned integer array |
`TIBRVMSG_``U16ARRAY` | 16-bit unsigned integer array |
`TIBRVMSG_``U32ARRAY` | 32-bit unsigned integer array |
`TIBRVMSG_``U64ARRAY` | 64-bit unsigned integer array |
`TIBRVMSG_``F32ARRAY` | 32-bit floating point array |
`TIBRVMSG_``F64ARRAY` | 64-bit floating point array |
`TIBRVMSG_``MESSAGEARRAY` | message array | Only C, Java and .NET language interfaces support these types.
