    <p>I am looking for one datatype with exact capacity of 0 to 2^64 - 1. We know that Java as it is does not support 'unsigned' barring char datatype. </p> <p>There is BigInteger class that allows creation of larger numbers that long datatype cannot support. But I am not sure how BigInteger class would serve my purpose. BigInteger class allows assignment through constructors only. I see the following possibility but it generates a random number.</p> <pre><code>BigInteger(int numBits, Random rnd) Constructs a randomly generated BigInteger, uniformly distributed over the range 0 to (2^numBits - 1), inclusive. </code></pre> <p>I can't see any setValue(x) kind of API that'd let me choose my own value to this BigInteger. How to implement this using BigInteger class or is there any other way of doing it? Please post code sample.</p> <p>PS: The question posted by someone <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/508630/java-equivalent-of-unsigned-long-long">here</a> does not have implementation details.</p>

    1. COCan you please clarify exactly why you need the data type and what you're trying to do with it? There may be ways to simplify the problem...

    2. COC++ supports such a datatype. I am interacting with C++ and thought it'd be better to have a similar datatype at Java end too rather than having to manipulate the data and convert it at C++ end.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
