DataObject Class

DataObject is a base data store that is primed with a root directory. It ensures that it is created and ready before you can access it.

Having a single root directory allows for easier development. Instead of creating and registering channels with the runtime any new DDS that is set on the root will automatically be registered.

export declare abstract class DataObject<I extends DataObjectTypes = DataObjectTypes> extends PureDataObject<I>

Extends: PureDataObject
