"""This module contains the parser/generators (or coders/encoders if you
prefer) for the classes/datatypes that are used in iCalendar:

###########################################################################
# This module defines these property value data types and property parameters

4.2 Defined property parameters are:

     ALTREP, CN, CUTYPE, DELEGATED-FROM, DELEGATED-TO, DIR, ENCODING, FMTTYPE,
     FBTYPE, LANGUAGE, MEMBER, PARTSTAT, RANGE, RELATED, RELTYPE, ROLE, RSVP,
     SENT-BY, TZID, VALUE

4.3 Defined value data types are:

    BINARY, BOOLEAN, CAL-ADDRESS, DATE, DATE-TIME, DURATION, FLOAT, INTEGER,
    PERIOD, RECUR, TEXT, TIME, URI, UTC-OFFSET

###########################################################################

iCalendar properties have values. The values are strongly typed. This module
defines these types, calling val.to_ical() on them will render them as defined
in rfc2445.

If you pass any of these classes a Python primitive, you will have an object
that can render itself as iCalendar formatted date.

Property Value Data Types start with a 'v'. they all have an to_ical() and
from_ical() method. The to_ical() method generates a text string in the
iCalendar format. The from_ical() method can parse this format and return a
primitive Python datatype. So it should always be true that:

    x == vDataType.from_ical(VDataType(x).to_ical())

These types are mainly used for parsing and file generation. But you can set
them directly.
