Add Recognition for new DCDataTypes #174

Closed ax3l closed 8 years ago

ax3l commented 9 years ago

We need to add enums and the general recognition in Splash for the new data types:

DCDT_BOOL: #153 #198
DCDT_CHAR, DCDT_STRING, DCDT_VLSTRING: #167
ARRAY and COMPOUNDS?
[x] At least the following files need an update.
[x] Also, tests should be added that actually use DCDataSet::getDCDataType() and DomainData::getFormatString() (probably, both are only used in splash2txt -> splashtools)

Yes, they are most likely only used in the tool. Looks good in general, chars and bools should be easy. I am not as sure about the array types etc.

ax3l commented 9 years ago

The array and compound types are new types, if we need them one could add them, too (I added a collection of the necessary commands in a draft, but especially compounds are cumbersome...)
