The use of this class is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.. See the section Archiving and Dearchiving of the breve documentation for more details.

The now obsolete class description follows.

The Data class is a special class that can be saved to disk, loaded in to simulations and otherwise manipulated in ways that other classes cannot. Because of the features of this class, it may only contain variables of type int, float or vector.

Previous versions of breve used a binary format for saving and loading data objects--the current version saves as XML files. A method for loading binary objects from previous versions still exists load-from-file, but its use is deprecated.
