Detailed Description

A TypeDefinition defines a faudes-type in that it specifies a faudes-type name to identify the type and a method NewObject() to instantiate objects of the respective type.

In this sense, TypeDefinition is a so called factory class. Technically, the TypeDefinition holds one instance of the faude type, the so called prototype object, and NewObject() invokes the New() method of the prototype. Notebly, there is only one class TypeDefinition that by parametrisation defins all derivates of Type.

TypeDefinition is derived from faudes::Documentation and therefore additional documentation-data can be associated.
