datatype class %Library.Vector
extends %DataType
ODBC Type: VARCHAR
Datatype class for storing vector content, such as embeddings, in the native $vector format.
See also the TO_VECTOR() SQL function to convert user input to the VECTOR datatype
• parameter DATATYPE = "DOUBLE";
The default type value used for this data type of vector.
• parameter LEN;
The number of elements the vector can contain.
• classmethod DisplayToLogical(%val As %String)
as %Vector
DisplayToLogical - If this is passed a dynamic array e.g.
'Set dynArray=[1,2,3,4]' then detect this with $isobject(%val)
and then if it is an oref then test if it is a dynamic array
and if so then walk this turning it into a vector so
we can support JSON and dynamic arrays.
• classmethod IsValid(%val As %Vector)
as %Status
Return $$$OK if the value is valid for the datatype, or an error code otherwise.
• classmethod LogicalToDisplay(%val As %Vector)
as %String
• classmethod LogicalToOdbc(%val As %Vector)
as %String
• classmethod Normalize(%val As %Vector)
as %Vector
• classmethod OdbcToLogical(%val As %String)
as %Vector
