Storages

This page is incomplete

While properties handle access and validation of data the storages take care how this data is retrieved or stored. A storage does not necessarily take or write to a persistant medium but can also retrieve informations from the system or calculate its value. The storage does not need to check for access rights or validate the input data this is done by the connected property.

All storages are based on AbstractStorage.
