| <dl compact="compact"> |
| <dt><code>b <var>type-information</var> ; <var>bytes</var></code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Pascal space type. This is documented by IBM; what does it mean? |
| </p> |
| <p>This use of the ‘<samp>b</samp>’ type descriptor can be distinguished |
| from its use for builtin integral types (see <a href="Builtin-Type-Descriptors.html#Builtin-Type-Descriptors">Builtin Type Descriptors</a>) because the character following the type descriptor is |
| always a digit, ‘<samp>(</samp>’, or ‘<samp>-</samp>’. |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code>B <var>type-information</var></code></dt> |
| <dd><p>A volatile-qualified version of <var>type-information</var>. This is |
| a Sun extension. References and stores to a variable with a |
| volatile-qualified type must not be optimized or cached; they |
| must occur as the user specifies them. |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code>d <var>type-information</var></code></dt> |
| <dd><p>File of type <var>type-information</var>. As far as I know this is only used |
| by Pascal. |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code>k <var>type-information</var></code></dt> |
| <dd><p>A const-qualified version of <var>type-information</var>. This is a Sun |
| extension. A variable with a const-qualified type cannot be modified. |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code>M <var>type-information</var> ; <var>length</var></code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Multiple instance type. The type seems to composed of <var>length</var> |
| repetitions of <var>type-information</var>, for example <code>character*3</code> is |
| represented by ‘<samp>M-2;3</samp>’, where ‘<samp>-2</samp>’ is a reference to a |
| character type (see <a href="Negative-Type-Numbers.html#Negative-Type-Numbers">Negative Type Numbers</a>). I’m not sure how this |
| differs from an array. This appears to be a Fortran feature. |
| <var>length</var> is a bound, like those in range types; see <a href="Subranges.html#Subranges">Subranges</a>. |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code>S <var>type-information</var></code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Pascal set type. <var>type-information</var> must be a small type such as an |
| enumeration or a subrange, and the type is a bitmask whose length is |
| specified by the number of elements in <var>type-information</var>. |
| </p> |
| <p>In CHILL, if it is a bitstring instead of a set, also use the ‘<samp>S</samp>’ |
| type attribute (see <a href="String-Field.html#String-Field">String Field</a>). |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code>* <var>type-information</var></code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Pointer to <var>type-information</var>. |
