Clasiz

clasiz allows you to know the size used by a class (in bytes).

Syntax

 clasiz(CLASS_DESCRIPTION,OPTION)clasiz(NUMERIC_EXPRESSION,OPTION)

• CLASS_DESCRIPTION is a class description with the [ABBR] syntax, where ABBR is the abbreviation of a class.
• OPTION is an integer expression returning 1 or 2.
• NUMERIC_EXPRESSION refers to the slot number for the class. This can be seen in the debugger, but should be considered internal.

Examples

 # Check the size used by the local variable classSIZE1=clasiz([L],1) : # The size used by [L] variablesSIZE2=clasiz([L],2) : # The size currently allocated for [L] variables

Description

clasiz allows you to return the size used by a class available in the execution context (for example, table, local class, or global class). If the class is not available, the return is 0.

The second argument can either be 1 or 2:
* If 1, the size currently used by the variables in the class is returned.
* If 2, the size allocated to the class is returned.

The result of the function is Integer.
