$BASICTYPE<br />

Syntax<br />

$BASICTYPE "param"<br />

Description<br />

The <strong>UniBasic</strong> $BASICTYPE command compiles data in a specified BASICTYPE.<br />

The $BASICTYPE statement must be the first noncomment statement in the program<br />

or subroutine.<br />

You can include only one $BASICTYPE statement per file (main program or<br />

subroutine), but you can split a program into separately cataloged subroutines for the<br />

purpose of changing BASICTYPE.<br />

If you do not specify $BASICTYPE, UniData compiles the program in the<br />

BASICTYPE specified in the ECL BASICTYPE command. The default type is U.<br />

Note: The BASICTYPE param must be in quotation marks.<br />
