ingres_field_type ( int index [, resource link])
ingres_field_type() returns the type of a field
in a query result, or FALSE on failure.
Examples of types returned are "IIAPI_BYTE_TYPE",
"IIAPI_CHA_TYPE", "IIAPI_DTE_TYPE", "IIAPI_FLT_TYPE",
"IIAPI_INT_TYPE", "IIAPI_VCH_TYPE". Some of these types can map
to more than one SQL type depending on the length of the field
(see ingres_field_length()). For example
"IIAPI_FLT_TYPE" can be a float4 or a float8. For detailed
information, see the Ingres/OpenAPI User Guide - Appendix C.
index is the number of the field and must be
