    Description copied from interface: DataType
    
    Returns an instance of this DataType with its universalID and SourceArchive identity retained.
    The current instanceof will be returned if this datatype's DataTypeManager matches the specified dtm. The recursion depth of a clone will stop on any datatype whose DataTypeManager matches the specified dtm and simply use the existing datatype instance.
    
    Parameters:
    
    dtm - the data-type manager instance whose data-organization should apply.
    
    Returns:
    
    cloned instance which may be the same as this instance
  - getLength
```
public int getLength()
```
    Description copied from interface: DataType
    
    Get the length (number of 8-bit bytes) of this DataType.
    NOTE: No datatype should ever return 0, even if DataType.isZeroLength(), and only Dynamic datatypes should return -1. If DataType.isZeroLength() is true a length of 1 should be returned. Where a zero-length datatype can be handled (e.g., Composite) the DataType.isZeroLength() method should be used.
    
    Returns:
    
    the length of this DataType
