Contains various static methods to help work with XTCE ParameterType

All Methods Static Methods Concrete Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`static void`	`checkEngValueAssignment(Parameter p, Value engValue)`	Checks that a value can be assigned to a parameter as engineering value Throws an IllegalArgumentException if not
`static void`	`checkEngValueAssignment(ParameterType ptype, Value engValue)`
`static Value`	`getEngValue(ParameterType ptype, Object value)`	Returns a Value corresponding to the java object and the parameter type or null if the parameter cannot be converted Note that the operation may involve some casting and loss of precision (e.g. from long to int or double to float)
`static Value`	`parseString(DataType type, String paramValue)`
