iOS Question Get the Long type using GetType

[DIEGO TREJO]

[SOLVED] In B4i, the GetType function always returns __NSCFNumber regardless of whether the data is Int, Byte, Float, Decimal or Long. Is there a way to differentiate these types of data? I am interested in differentiating the Long type

 

[Erel]

No. Where does the data come from?

 

[DIEGO TREJO]

From nowhere in particular. I just need to differentiate the Long type from the other numerical types, since it is used to store DateTime

 

[Erel]

There isn't enough information here but you should probably store a custom type instead of just the number. This can be done with KVS2 or B4XSerializator.

I use Is statement. For example, if x is an object:

    If x Is Int Then ...
    If x Is Long Then ...
    If x Is Float Then ...
    If x Is Double Then ...

Great idea Mr. Matusovskiy, it worked well for me.
