Package com.pervasive.datarush.types Description

Provides classes and interfaces for the description of token data types.

All data within DataRush is strongly typed. This typing is applied to tokens and propagates through to all constructs dealing with tokens, such as ports. In some cases, type checking is enforced through Java's own type checking, preventing compilation of invalid code. However, in other cases, it may not be possible to perform these checks until composition or execution of the graph, as the data types of flows may not be known statically (for example, deriving from the schema of a file whose name is supplied as a runtime parameter). The token data type descriptors implementing TokenType are used in this dynamic type checking.
