Class MobyDataTypeTemplate

All Implemented Interfaces:

Comparable<MobyDataType>, LSIDAccessible

public class MobyDataTypeTemplate
extends MobyDataType

You probably don't need to be looking at this class. This is a class with a highly specialized purpose: to allow runtime binding of a MobyDataType to a particular subclass of the data type, so that the object can be used in runtime templating of data types for object instances in the org.biomoby.shared.data package. For example, MobyServlet allows a data type definition such as <T extends GenericSequence> and at run time, the subclass actually instantiated must be enforced throughout the scope of the declaration.
