If a service is implementedusing the OSE C++ class library directly, different size versions of the in-
teger and floating point types are available and can be generated in the serialised form of any data. A
consequence of thisis that when converting any data from its serialised form into instances of Python
types, a broader range of possible values types need to be accommodated.
Notetha t at the present time, not all of the XML data types in respect of non positive and non negative
integersare accommodated. These will most likely be added at some time in the future, however in the
short term they don’t adda nythingextra in relation to the Python interface. Support for the type
