In Mysql gibt es dafür einen billigen Trick:
mysql> select ~0;
+----------------------+
| ~0 |
+----------------------+
| 18446744073709551615 |
+----------------------+
die Tilde ist die bitweise Negation. Der resultierende Wert ist ein Bigint. Siehe:http://dev.mysql .com/doc/refman/5.1/en/bit-functions.html#operator_bitwise-invert
Für die anderen ganzzahligen Varianten können Sie den rechten Bitshift-Operator >> verwenden etwa so:
SELECT ~0 as max_bigint_unsigned
, ~0 >> 32 as max_int_unsigned
, ~0 >> 40 as max_mediumint_unsigned
, ~0 >> 48 as max_smallint_unsigned
, ~0 >> 56 as max_tinyint_unsigned
, ~0 >> 1 as max_bigint_signed
, ~0 >> 33 as max_int_signed
, ~0 >> 41 as max_mediumint_signed
, ~0 >> 49 as max_smallint_signed
, ~0 >> 57 as max_tinyint_signed
