public abstract class RepeatCountDataType extends DynamicDataType
Base abstract data type for a Dynamic structure data type that contains some number of repeated data types. The first entry contains the number of repeated data types to follow. Immediately following the first element are the repeated data types. The dynamic structure looks like this: RepeatDataType number = N - two bytes, little endian RepDT1 repDT2 ... repDTN

      public Object getValue(MemBuffer buf, Settings settings, int length)
      Description copied from interface: DataType
      Get the interpretted data value in the form of the appropriate Object for this DataType. This method must return a value consistent with DataType.getValueClass(Settings).

      For instance, if this datatype is a Pointer an Address object or null should be returned. A Byte, returns a Scalar object.

      Parameters:
      buf - the data buffer.
      settings - the settings to use.
      length - the number of bytes to get the value from.
      Returns:
      the data Object.

      Description copied from interface: DataType
      Get bytes from memory in a printable format for this type.
      Parameters:
      buf - the data.
      settings - the settings to use for the representation.
      length - the number of bytes to represent.
      Returns:
      the representation of the data in this format, never null.
