Synopsis

Argument

Return value
Bit encoded set type.
Further information
The type of a set is both the type of all elements of the set (as a type code) and the storage class used for the set. The element type code can be extracted using the macro XPRM_TYP(type). The storage class can be extracted using the macro XPRM_GRP(type). If the bit XPRM_GRP_GEN is set then the set is a general set as opposed to a range set. If the bit XPRM_GRP_DYN is set, the set is dynamic and may be extended.
