[OpenWalnut-Dev] [OWci] r5271: [ADD #83] added new handled data types

[Alexander Wiebel]

Hi,
just to note it for everyone (summary from the phone call):

We want to support all types that I marked with # in my previous E-Mail
(see below)

>> One could aim at supporting all sensible
>> types in WDataHandlerEnums, e.g. all marked with # in the following list. However we do not have data for every thing so it will be hard to test if it works at the moment. If it is of interest I can implement a module than can produce test data in an arbitrary data type.
