MAINSAIL Language Manual, Section 48.28

The PROCEDURE $typeName returns a STRING type name corresponding to a type code typeCode. The correspondence between type codes and names is as follows:

Type Code	Name
`booleanCode`	`BOOLEAN`
`integerCode`	`INTEGER`
`longIntegerCode`	`LONG` `INTEGER`
`realCode`	`REAL`
`longRealCode`	`LONG` `REAL`
`bitsCode`	`BITS`
`longBitsCode`	`LONG` `BITS`
`stringCode`	`STRING`
`addressCode`	`ADDRESS`
`charadrCode`	`CHARADR`
`pointerCode`	`POINTER`
`$recordCode`	`$RECORD`
`$procvarCode`	`$PROCVAR`
`$boolean1Code`	`BOOLEAN(1)`
`$boolean2Code`	`BOOLEAN(2)`
`$boolean4Code`	`BOOLEAN(4)`
`$integer1Code`	`INTEGER(1)`
`$integer2Code`	`INTEGER(2)`
`$integer4Code`	`INTEGER(4)`
`$integerSigned1Code`	`INTEGER(-1)`
`$integerSigned2Code`	`INTEGER(-2)`
`$integerSigned4Code`	`INTEGER(-4)`
`$longInteger1Code`	`LONG` `INTEGER(1)`
`$longInteger2Code`	`LONG` `INTEGER(2)`
`$longInteger4Code`	`LONG` `INTEGER(4)`
`$longIntegerSigned1Code`	`LONG` `INTEGER(-1)`
`$longIntegerSigned2Code`	`LONG` `INTEGER(-2)`
`$longIntegerSigned4Code`	`LONG` `INTEGER(-4)`
`$bits1Code`	`BITS(1)`
`$bits2Code`	`BITS(2)`
`$bits4Code`	`BITS(4)`
`$longBits1Code`	`LONG` `BITS(1)`
`$longBits2Code`	`LONG` `BITS(2)`
`$longBits4Code`	`LONG` `BITS(4)`

The only valid ctrlBits bit is errorOK. If not specified, an error message is issued if typeCode is not a valid MAINSAIL type code. The null STRING is returned for invalid MAINSAIL type codes.
