All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<IsoType>
```
public enum IsoType
extends java.lang.Enum<IsoType>
```
Defines the possible values types that can be used in the fields. Some types required the length of the value to be specified (NUMERIC and ALPHA). Other types have a fixed length, like dates and times. Other types do not require a length to be specified, like LLVAR and LLLVAR.
