parameter LEN;

The number of elements the vector can contain.

Methods

classmethod DisplayToLogical(%val As %String) as %Vector

DisplayToLogical - If this is passed a dynamic array e.g. 'Set dynArray=[1,2,3,4]' then detect this with $isobject(%val) and then if it is an oref then test if it is a dynamic array and if so then walk this turning it into a vector so we can support JSON and dynamic arrays.

classmethod IsValid(%val As %Vector) as %Status

Inherited description: Return $$$OK if the value is valid for the datatype, or an error code otherwise.

classmethod LogicalToDisplay(%val As %Vector) as %String

classmethod LogicalToOdbc(%val As %Vector) as %String

classmethod Normalize(%val As %Vector) as %Vector
