ARGSIZE1

The ARGSIZE1 global variable stores the first size of an argument that has a size. An argument that does not have a size, such as an integer value, has an ARGSIZE1 value of -1.

For example:
  • If the data type of the second argument is VARCHAR(255), ARGSIZE1[2] equals 255.
  • If the data type of the third argument is BIGINT, ARGSIZE1[3] equals -1.
