The usual interpretation of theamproclefttype andamprocrighttype fields is that they identify the left and right input types of the operator(s) that a particular support function supports. For some access methods these match the input data type(s) of the support function itself, for others not. There is a notion of“default” support functions for an index, which are those withamproclefttype andamprocrighttype both equal to the index operator class'sopcintype.
