Hi,
How do I declare 64 bit integers in FireBird. I want to use it as the key value of a certain table.
Will this syntax do?
CREATE DOMAIN ID_INTEGER64BIT AS
NUMERIC(18,0)
NOT NULL
It seems a 64 bit key value may run into Zillions (-2^63..2^63-1)
Are there other considerations I must take into account?
Regards.
