The usual interpretation of the amproclefttype and amprocrighttype 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 “[.quote]#default”# support functions for an index, which are those with amproclefttype and amprocrighttype both equal to the index operator class’s opcintype.
