Detailed Description

The values that are held within a given C++ property type all have a fixed type, required by static typing.

This means that when passing a value for a property from Python there must be a match between between the types.

This class defines a registry of mappings between a C++ type T and a PropertyValueHandler object that is able to extract (or attempt to extract) the correct C++ type for that property from a given Python object.
