Detailed Description

It stores information about a data type.

A singleton for managing all data types in the system.

TerraLib keeps information about all available data types in the system in a singleton called DataTypeManager. In this singleton you will find all supported data types.

Some of the data type codes are reserved for the built-in data types of TerraLib (they can be seen in defines).

See also: DataTypeManager, AbstractData

TerraLib keeps information about all available data types in this singleton. Here, you can find all supported data types.

Basic constraints for data types:

No two data types may have the same name
The id of a data type will be dynamically generated by the manager
Data type names must be in capital letters although it can contains numbers and other symbols
