EmptyUsual Function

Return the empty value of a specified data type.

Namespace: XSharp.RT
Assembly: XSharp.RT (in XSharp.RT.dll) Version: 2.21

Syntax

Copy

 FUNCTION EmptyUsual(
	kType AS DWORD
) AS USUAL

public static Usual EmptyUsual(
	uint kType
)

Request Example View Source

Parameters

kType: Type: DWord
The data type whose empty value is desired.
The constants defining all X# data types are listed in the table below.

Return Value

Type: Usual
The empty value of the data type specified by kType.
These values are as follows:

kType	Empty Value
ARRAY	NULL_ARRAY or empty array
BYTE, DWORD	0
FLOAT, INT	0
LONGINT, REAL4	0
REAL8, SHORTINT	0
WORD	0
CODEBLOCK	NULL_CODEBLOCK
DATE	NULL_DATE
LOGIC	FALSE
OBJECT	NULL_OBJECT
PSZ	NULL_PSZ
PTR	NULL_PTR
STRING	Spaces, tabs, carriage return/line feed, or NULL_STRING
SYMBOL	NULL_SYMBOL
USUAL	NIL
VOID	NIL

Remarks

Examples

This example shows the result of EmptyUsual() for different data types:

Copy

1? EmptyUsual(LOGIC)                // FALSE
2? EmptyUsual(SHORTINT)        // 0
3? EmptyUsual(STRING)            // NULL_STRING

This example passes the result of the EmptyUsual() function to the Empty() function:

Copy

1? Empty(EmptyUsual(DATE))            // TRUE
2? Empty(EmptyUsual(LONGINT))    // TRUE
3? Empty(EmptyUsual(SYMBOL))      // TRUE
