public interface DsRequestBeanTypes
record
 data in DSRequests will  automatically be converted to the type of the target field, before
 the request is received  in a DMI.  For example, if your bean has a field "price" of
 type Float,  an "update" DSRequest with a new value for this field will use the Java Float type
 for the  new value, whereas in the absence of a bean, the Double type would ordinarily be used 
 (see RPCRequest.data). 
 This happens only
 for fields of type integer, sequence, intEnum and float. Because
 the conversion is performed as part of server-side validation, it  applies only to "update" or
 "add" requests, and does not apply to DSRequest.oldValues, which will continue to use the generic types listed in RPCRequest.data. 
 Note that, while values for
 non-numeric fields will still use basic Java types (for example, values for Java Enum fields
 will arrive as Strings by
 \n default), manual conversion of the remaining data is not necessary; the server-side API 
 DataSource.setProperties() does all remaining conversion necessary to populate  a
 bean from the request data (see that API's docs for details), and this conversion will be
 performed automatically if your DMI logic calls execute() on the DSRequest. 
 You may need to explicitly define what Java type must be used during conversion for a given
 field. This can be achieved by setting DataSourceField.javaClass
 property. 
If conversion fails, because of target field using an abstract Java type or invalid class defined in DSField.javaClass property etc, conversion will fall back to its default behavior, i.e. Java type will be guessed from the actual field value. It would be Long for integer based types and Double for float type or, if the value would appear to exceed the ranges of these types, BigInteger and BigDecimal accordingly.
