    Description copied from interface: DataType
    
    Returns a new instance of this DataType with its universalID and SourceArchive identity retained. Note: for built-in DataType's, clone and copy should have the same affect.
    
    Parameters:
    
    dtm - the data-type manager instance whose data-organization should apply.
  - isDynamicallySized
```
public boolean isDynamicallySized()
```
    Description copied from interface: DataType
    
    Indicates if this data-type is dynamically sized based upon DataOrganization.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isDynamicallySized in interface DataType
    
    Overrides:
    
    isDynamicallySized in class AbstractFloatDataType

    DataType.isDynamicallySized()
  - getLength
```
public int getLength()
```
    Description copied from interface: DataType
    
    Get the length (number of 8-bit bytes) of this DataType.
    
    Returns:
    
    the length of this DataType
