`FieldDataCollection`

A collection of field data.

Example

application = cf.Application.GetInstance()
project = application:NewProject()

    -- Retrieve the project's 'FieldDataCollection'

fieldDataCollection = project.Definitions.FieldDataList

    -- Add a 'FarFieldData' to the collection

fieldDataCollection:AddFarFieldData([[FarFieldData.ffe]])

    -- Query the number of FieldData entries in the collection

numberOfFieldDataDefinitions = #fieldDataCollection

    -- Retrieve the first 'FieldData' from the collection

fieldData = fieldDataCollection[1]
