Known Subclasses:
GRStubParam

Abstract class for parameters. Must be overridden by a descendant to handle actual parameter values.
Method Summary
  __init__(self, parent, name, datatype)
  asSQL(self, paramDict)
Add another key to the parameter dictionary holding the parameter's value and return an apropriate place holder for it.
  evaluate(self, lookup)
A parameter element evaluates to it's value.
  getValue(self)
Descendants override this function to return the value of the parameter.
  prefixNotation(self)
The prefix notation of a parameter object is a 'constant' with the parameters' value
    Inherited from GCondition
  buildFromList(self, prefixList)
