The mi_fp_retprec() accessor function obtains the precision of a return value of a user-defined function from its associated MI_FPARAM structure.
The mi_fp_retprec() function obtains the precision of the routine return value at position ret_pos from the MI_FPARAM structure that fparam_ptr references.
The precision is an attribute of the data type that represents the total number of digits the routine return value can hold, as follows.
If you call mi_fp_retprec() on some other data type, the function returns zero (0).
The MI_FPARAM structure stores information about the precision of function return values in the zero-based return-precision array. To obtain information about the nth return value, use a ret_pos value of n-1. For example, the following call to mi_fp_retprec() obtains the precision for the first return value of the my_func() user-defined function, with which fparam1 is associated:
Important: C user-defined functions always have only one return value.
