/*! \class io_data_impl
* \brief Abstract class for data types.
*
* Use this class to define a custom data type. Data types ares used for logging
*and graphs. \n
* The reimplemented class must call SetSize() in its constructor. \n
* io_data can be constructed with n samples (see io_data::io_data).
* In this case, old samples can be accessed throug io_data::Prev.
