22.9.2 Integer Data Types
  CDD/Repository refers to integer data types as fixed-
  point data types. CDD/Repository supports BYTE, WORD,
  LONGWORD, QUADWORD, and OCTAWORD integer
  data types. Each of these data types can have the following
  additional attributes:

        SIGNED
        UNSIGNED
        SIZE
        DIGITS
        FRACTION
        BASE
        SCALE

  In CDDL, if integer data types are not specified as being
  signed or unsigned, the default is unsigned. BASIC supports
  only signed BYTE, signed WORD, and signed LONGWORD
  integers. If a CDD/Repository data definition containing an
  unsigned BYTE, WORD, or LONGWORD integer is ex-
  tracted, BASIC signals the informational message ``Datatype
  in CDD/Repository not supported, substituted group for:
  <field-name>'', and creates a group to contain the field.
  Because the group name is the same as the CDD/Repository
  field name, BASIC assigns a new name to the field. This
  is shown in the following CDDL data definition and corre-
  sponding BASIC RECORD statement:

  CDDL Definition
  EXAMPLE: Click to display example.

  Translated RECORD Statement
  EXAMPLE: Click to display example.

  When the previous data definition is extracted from
  CDD/Repository, BASIC signals an informational mes-
  sage for each of the unsigned data types, and names the
  CDD/Repository unsigned byte field BYTE_VALUE, the
  CDD/Repository unsigned word field WORD_VALUE, and
  the CDD/Repository unsigned longword field LONG_VALUE.

  BASIC does not support QUADWORD or OCTAWORD inte-
  gers. If a CDD/Repository definition contains a QUADWORD
  or OCTAWORD integer, BASIC signals the informational
  message ``Datatype in CDD/Repository not supported, sub-
  stituted group for: <field-name>'' and creates a group to
  contain the field and a string component within the group.
  The string component is 8 bytes for QUADWORD integers
  and 16 bytes for OCTAWORD integers. For example:

  CDDL Definition
  EXAMPLE: Click to display example.

  Translated RECORD Statement
  EXAMPLE: Click to display example.

  CDD/Repository supports the SCALE keyword to specify an
  implied exponent in integer data types, and the BASE key-
  word (supported in CDDL only) to specify that the scale
  for a fixed-point field is to be interpreted in a numeric
  base other than 10. BASIC does not support these integer
  attributes. Therefore, BASIC signals the informational mes-
  sage ``CDD/Repository specifies SCALE for <name>. Not
  supported'', for fixed-point fields containing a SCALE spec-
  ification and the error message, ``CDD/Repository attributes
  for <name> are other than base 10'', for fixed-point fields
  specifying a base other than 10. For example:

  CDDL Definition
  EXAMPLE: Click to display example.

  Translated RECORD Statement
  EXAMPLE: Click to display example.

  At compilation time, BASIC also signals these warning errors
  for each reference to fields that are not base 10 or that have
  a SCALE.
