## Types and Values

### enum FMADataType

Each elementary data which would take advantage of FMABoxed facilities should be typed at instanciation time.

FMAIFactoryProvider implementations should provide a primitive for reading (resp. writing) a value for each of these elementary data types.

Please note that this enumeration may be compiled in by the extensions. They must so remain fixed, unless you are prepared to see strange effects (e.g. an extension may have been compiled with `FMA_DATA_TYPE_STRING` = 2, while you have inserted another element, making it to 3 !) - or you know what you are doing...

So, only add new items at the end of the enum. You have been warned!

#### Members

FMA_DATA_TYPE_BOOLEAN | a boolean can be initialized with "true" or "false" (case insensitive) |
FMA_DATA_TYPE_POINTER | a ( void * ) pointer |
FMA_DATA_TYPE_STRING | an ASCII string |
