Detailed Description

A type of Data Ardour is capable of processing.

The majority of this class is dedicated to conversion to and from various other type representations, simple comparison between then, etc. This code is deliberately 'ugly' so other code doesn't have to be.

Member Enumeration Documentation

Symbol

enum ARDOUR::DataType::Symbol

Numeric symbol for this DataType.

Castable to int for use as an array index (e.g. by ChanCount). Note this means NIL is (ntypes-1) and guaranteed to change when types are added, so this number is NOT suitable for serialization, network, or binary anything.

Some heuristics in Ardour's UI assume that the DataTypes are ordered from most to least likely to be the main intended type of a route.

WARNING: The number of non-NIL entries here must match num_types.
