Size attributes indicate the amount of storage to be reserved
for the object.
The BIT attribute specifies the amount of storage in bits to be
received by the object.
Syntax:
BIT [[( n )]]
The optional constant 'n' indicates the number of bit storage
units. It must denote a positive integer. If you omit n, the
default value is 1.
See the "Compaq Pascal Language Reference Manual" for the
complete description of using the BIT attribute.
The BYTE attribute specifies the amount of storage in bytes to
be received by the object.
Syntax:
BYTE [[( n )]]
The optional constant 'n' indicates the number of byte storage
units. It must denote a positive integer. If you omit 'n', the
default value is 1.
See the "Compaq Pascal Language Reference Manual" for the
complete description of using the BYTE attribute.
The WORD attribute specifies the amount of storage in words to
be received by the object.
Syntax:
WORD [[( n )]]
The optional constant 'n' indicates the number of word storage
units. It must denote a positive integer. If you omit n, the
default value is 1.
See the "Compaq Pascal Language Reference Manual" for the
complete description of using the WORD attribute.
The LONG attribute specifies the amount of storage in longwords
to be received by the object.
Syntax:
LONG [[( n )]]
The optional constant 'n' indicates the number of longword
storage units. It must denote a positive integer. If you omit
'n', the default value is 1.
See the "Compaq Pascal Language Reference Manual" for the
complete description of using the LONG attribute.
The QUAD attribute specifies the amount of storage in quadwords
to be received by the object.
Syntax:
QUAD [[( n )]]
The optional constant 'n' indicates the number of quadword
storage units. It must denote a positive integer. If you omit
'n', the default value is 1.
See the "Compaq Pascal Language Reference Manual" for the
complete description of using the QUAD attribute.
The OCTA attribute specifies the amount of storage in octawords
to be received by the object.
Syntax:
OCTA [[( n )]]
The optional constant 'n' indicates the number of octaword
storage units. It must denote a positive integer. If you omit
'n', the default value is 1.
See the "Compaq Pascal Language Reference Manual" for the
complete description of using the OCTA attribute.
