Class DataType
A data type is a type whose instances are identified only by their value. A DataType may contain attributes to support the modeling of structured data types.
A typical use of data types would be to represent programming language primitive types or CORBA basic types. For example, integer and string types are often treated as data types. DataType is an abstract class that acts as a common superclass for different kinds of data types.
