MLGetInteger64 (C Function)

MLGetInteger64 has been replaced by WSGetInteger64.

int MLGetInteger64(MLINK link,mlint64 *i)

gets a native 64-bit integer from the MathLink connection specified by link and stores it in i.

Details

  • If the data on the link corresponds to a real number, MLGetInteger64() will round it to a 64-bit integer.
  • If the data on the link corresponds to an integer too large to store in a 64-bit C type, or the 32-bit structure on your computer system, then MLGetInteger64() will fail, and return 0.
  • MLGetInteger64() returns a nonzero value if the function succeeds.
  • Use MLError() to retrieve the error code if MLGetInteger64() fails.
  • MLGetInteger64() is declared in the MathLink header file mathlink.h.
