Change Datatype of MDF4 Dataplugin

Issue Details

When I use MDF4 Dataplugin which is installed from this site , I noticed that stored data type is always double. Is it possible to change this data type to the other (for example, integer) ?

Solution

In order to change data type, you should

• Set additional parameters as <nativedatatype>true</nativedatatype>

Each value represents different datatype. Please refer to the following table.
