RE: Integer type in DDS PF?

It is an Integer and can hold the complete range! It is RPG which converts
it (as well as the real integer values in SQL Tables) into packed.
Depending on the keyword EXTBININT the integer (9B 0) values are either
converted into 10P 0 or 11P 0 in RPG.

Is it? Or is that just the old fashioned way IBM documented it prior to the
advent of true integers in RPG?

What's the DDS type for a SQL INTEGER? Is it a 4 long binary?
