    /**
     * @class Ext.data.Types
     * This is s static class containing the system-supplied data types which may be given to a {@link Ext.data.Field Field}.
     * The properties in this class are used as type indicators in the {@link Ext.data.Field Field} class, so to
     * test whether a Field is of a certain type, compare the {@link Ext.data.Field#type type} property against properties
     * of this class.
     * Developers may add their own application-specific data types to this class. Definition names must be UPPERCASE.
     * each type definition must contain three properties:
     *
     * convert : FunctionA function to convert raw data values from a data block into the data
     * to be stored in the Field. The function is passed the collowing parameters:
     *
     * v : MixedThe data value as read by the Reader, if undefined will use
     * the configured {@link Ext.data.Field#defaultValue defaultValue}.
     * rec : MixedThe data object containing the row as read by the Reader.
     * Depending on the Reader type, this could be an Array ({@link Ext.data.ArrayReader ArrayReader}), an object
     * ({@link Ext.data.JsonReader JsonReader}), or an XML element ({@link Ext.data.XMLReader XMLReader}).
     *
     * sortType : Function A function to convert the stored data into comparable form, as defined by {@link Ext.data.SortTypes}.
     * type : String A textual data type name.
     *
     * For example, to create a VELatLong field (See the Microsoft Bing Mapping API) containing the latitude/longitude value of a datapoint on a map from a JsonReader data block
     * which contained the properties lat and long, you would define a new data type like this:
     *
    // Add a new Field data type which stores a VELatLong object in the Record.
    Ext.data.Types.VELATLONG = {
        convert: function(v, data) {
            return new VELatLong(data.lat, data.long);
        },
        sortType: function(v) {
            return v.Latitude;  // When sorting, order by latitude
        },
        type: 'VELatLong'
    };

     * Then, when declaring a Record, use
    var types = Ext.data.Types; // allow shorthand type access
    UnitRecord = Ext.data.Record.create([
        { name: 'unitName', mapping: 'UnitName' },
        { name: 'curSpeed', mapping: 'CurSpeed', type: types.INT },
        { name: 'latitude', mapping: 'lat', type: types.FLOAT },
        { name: 'latitude', mapping: 'lat', type: types.FLOAT },
        { name: 'position', type: types.VELATLONG }
    ]);
