Detailed Description

Property represents a value, or a list of values in a ply file. Every element in ply has one or more properties. Each property should have a name and a type. Note that the type of a property acts more like an indicator for its bit width rather than a type specifier, for example unsigned char values represent numbers ranging from 0 to 255, rather than a single character as comprehended in c++. In practice, you should use one of the derived typed-classes and they are the only supported types by ply specification.
