_at_Attribute dataType

Hiya,

Can someone give me an example of where the dataType param on
Attribute annotation is used (not declared)? I see it in a bunch of
places where an attribute returned as a String is declared to be a
boolean, for example, but I haven't seen where this is used in calling
code as anything but a String. I'm just curious about what the data
type is used for.

Thanks,
Bobby
