40 * This is not a full implementation of a field type, but adds some
41 * support for higher level languages with some restrictions to interop
42 * with C language. Especially the collection of arguments for the
43 * various fieldtypes is not based on the vararg C mechanism, but on a
44 * iterator based callback mechanism that allowes the high level language
45 * to provide the arguments as a structure. Most languages have mechanisms
46 * to layout structures so that they can be passed to C.
47 * The languages can register a new generic fieldtype dynamically and store
48 * a handle (key) to the calling object as an argument. Together with that
49 * it can register a freearg callback, so that the high level language
50 * remains in control of the memory management of the arguments they pass.
51 * The design idea is, that the high-level language - typically a OO
52 * language like C# or Java, uses it's own dispatching mechanisms
53 * (polymorphism) to call the proper check routines responsible for the
54 * argument type. So these language implement typically only one generic
55 * fieldtype they register with the forms library using this call.
57 * For that purpose we have extended the fieldtype struc by a new element
58 * that gets the arguments from a single struct passed by the caller.
