OFTInteger

This class represents an integer field within a data source, providing access to the underlying integer value. It ensures the field type is consistently identified as an integer, even when the underlying storage might use a different representation like a real number.

Constructor

Signature

def OFTInteger()

---

Methods

---

value()

@classmethod
def value() - > int

Return an integer contained in this field.

Returns

Type	Description
int	The integer value stored within the field, cast according to the bit depth of the field.

---

type()

@classmethod
def type() - > int

GDAL uses OFTReals to represent OFTIntegers in created shapefiles -- forcing the type here since the underlying field type may actually be OFTReal.

Returns

Type	Description
int	The integer constant representing the OFTInteger field type, regardless of the underlying GDAL storage type.
