Data Types

State-drive Dynamic Configuration generates its own data types for use in the API functions. The functions use these types to be more specific with the type of data they are using. For instance, instead of simply taking parameters of the ANSI C type short, a function may take parameters of the generated data types State or Byte. Though these two types have ANSI C equivalents, they serve to clarify the intent of functions that use them.

ANSI C data types are shown in blue. Generated data types are shown in plum.

Data types are created using the ANSI C typedef operator.
