<p>Libuser entities store attribute values as <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/gobject/unstable/gobject-Generic-values.html#GValue"><span class="type">GValue</span></a>, which allows representing
any possible data type.  Only a few types are needed in practice; the only
types applications should hard-code are <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/gobject/unstable/gobject-Type-Information.html#G-TYPE-LONG:CAPS"><code class="literal">G_TYPE_LONG</code></a> and <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/gobject/unstable/gobject-Type-Information.html#G-TYPE-STRING:CAPS"><code class="literal">G_TYPE_STRING</code></a>
(<a href="https://developer.gnome.org/gobject/unstable/gobject-Type-Information.html#G-TYPE-STRING:CAPS"><code class="literal">G_TYPE_STRING</code></a> can usually be used as a fallback for other number types).</p>
<p>The only currently used data types that are not conveniently supported using
the above types are <span class="type">uid_t</span> and <span class="type">gid_t</span> (which can be together represented in
<span class="type">id_t</span>), because they can support values outside of the range of <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-Basic-Types.html#glong"><span class="type">glong</span></a>.
Helper functions are provided to convert values between <span class="type">id_t</span> and <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/gobject/unstable/gobject-Generic-values.html#GValue"><span class="type">GValue</span></a>,
even if the value is stored using <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/gobject/unstable/gobject-Type-Information.html#G-TYPE-STRING:CAPS"><code class="literal">G_TYPE_STRING</code></a>.  The <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/gobject/unstable/gobject-Generic-values.html#GValue"><span class="type">GValue</span></a> types used
for storing <span class="type">id_t</span> values are an internal implementation detail of libuser
and applications should not rely on them.</p>
<p>Values of each attribute are expected to have a specific type, documented in
the documentation of the specific attribute name.  Using other types (e.g.
using <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/gobject/unstable/gobject-Type-Information.html#G-TYPE-STRING:CAPS"><code class="literal">G_TYPE_STRING</code></a> for <a class="link" href="libuser-entity.html#LU-UIDNUMBER:CAPS" title="LU_UIDNUMBER"><code class="literal">LU_UIDNUMBER</code></a>) is not allowed and results in
undefined behavior.  You can use <a class="link" href="libuser-value.html#lu-value-strdup" title="lu_value_strdup ()"><code class="function">lu_value_strdup()</code></a> and
<a class="link" href="libuser-value.html#lu-value-init-set-attr-from-string" title="lu_value_init_set_attr_from_string ()"><code class="function">lu_value_init_set_attr_from_string()</code></a> for conversion between strings and
values appropriate for a specific attribute.</p>
