     55 /** @brief Template "trait" class for OpenCV primitive data types.
     56 
     57 A primitive OpenCV data type is one of unsigned char, bool, signed char, unsigned short, signed
     58 short, int, float, double, or a tuple of values of one of these types, where all the values in the
     59 tuple have the same type. Any primitive type from the list can be defined by an identifier in the
     60 form CV_\<bit-depth\>{U|S|F}C(\<number_of_channels\>), for example: uchar \~ CV_8UC1, 3-element
     61 floating-point tuple \~ CV_32FC3, and so on. A universal OpenCV structure that is able to store a
     62 single instance of such a primitive data type is Vec. Multiple instances of such a type can be
     63 stored in a std::vector, Mat, Mat_, SparseMat, SparseMat_, or any other container that is able to
     64 store Vec instances.
     65 
     66 The DataType class is basically used to provide a description of such primitive data types without
     67 adding any fields or methods to the corresponding classes (and it is actually impossible to add
     68 anything to primitive C/C++ data types). This technique is known in C++ as class traits. It is not
     69 DataType itself that is used but its specialized versions, such as:
     70 @code
     71     template<> class DataType<uchar>
     72     {
     73         typedef uchar value_type;
     74         typedef int work_type;
     75         typedef uchar channel_type;
     76         enum { channel_type = CV_8U, channels = 1, fmt='u', type = CV_8U };
     77     };
     78     ...
     79     template<typename _Tp> DataType<std::complex<_Tp> >
     80     {
     81         typedef std::complex<_Tp> value_type;
     82         typedef std::complex<_Tp> work_type;
     83         typedef _Tp channel_type;
     84         // DataDepth is another helper trait class
     85         enum { depth = DataDepth<_Tp>::value, channels=2,
     86             fmt=(channels-1)*256+DataDepth<_Tp>::fmt,
     87             type=CV_MAKETYPE(depth, channels) };
     88     };
     89     ...
     90 @endcode
     91 The main purpose of this class is to convert compilation-time type information to an
     92 OpenCV-compatible data type identifier, for example:
     93 @code
     94     // allocates a 30x40 floating-point matrix
     95     Mat A(30, 40, DataType<float>::type);
     96 
     97     Mat B = Mat_<std::complex<double> >(3, 3);
     98     // the statement below will print 6, 2 , that is depth == CV_64F, channels == 2
     99     cout << B.depth() << ", " << B.channels() << endl;
    100 @endcode
    101 So, such traits are used to tell OpenCV which data type you are working with, even if such a type is
    102 not native to OpenCV. For example, the matrix B initialization above is compiled because OpenCV
    103 defines the proper specialized template class DataType\<complex\<_Tp\> \> . This mechanism is also
    104 useful (and used in OpenCV this way) for generic algorithms implementations.
