public class DataType

extends Classifier

A data type is a type whose values have no identity, i.e. they are pure values. Data types include primitive built-in types (such as integer and string) as well as definable enumeration types (such as the predefined enumeration type boolean whose literals are false and true).

In the metamodel a DataType defines a special kind of type in which Operations are all pure functions, i.e. they can return DataValues but they cannot change DataValues (because they have no identity).
