So my
"[RFC PATCH v2 1/9] libcamera: Value: Provide abstract value class"

concept comes back to life at last :-D

Shouldn't this be 0?

sizeof(bool) == 1 ...

> +	[DataTypeInteger64]	= 8,

You could instead do:

static constexpr size_t DataSize[DataTypeNumber] = {
	[DataTypeNone]		= 0,
	[DataTypeBool]		= sizeof(bool),
	[DataTypeInteger]	= sizeof(int32_t),
	[DataTypeInteger64]	= sizeof(int64_t),
};

Does this type need a copy constructor currently?
Won't C++ just copy the whole object, which would be equivalent?

That said, if/when this class becomes more complex then it would likely
need some sort of specialisation - so it doesn't hurt to have it already.

I haven't tried to compile this yet, but doesn't this generate a
compiler warning?

I thought C++ was very picky about switch statements not explicitly
stating all enum types... Perhaps not when a default statement is provided.

changing this to:

	...

	case DataTypeNone:
		return "<None>";
	}

	return "<INVALID TYPE>";
}

would in that case ensure that this function is always updated (forced
by the compiler) whenever a new type is added?

Does data_value need a whole subdirectory for a single test? Will it
have multiple tests in the (near) future?

I really dislike adding a subdirectory/test suite just for a single test
unless we really know it's going to be extended.
