Using Integer8 Data Types in 3GL Procedures
OpenROAD 6.0 allowed limited runtime support for the integer8 data type. If an integer8 type was used in registration of a 3GL routine, it would be tried as an integer4.
Now that the OpenROAD 6.2 runtime fully implements the integer8 data type, calls to 3GL procedures that accept 4-byte integer arguments and return values using OpenROAD integer8 variables will either malfunction or cause OpenROAD to terminate abnormally.
