Thank you.  That works for the attribute and gave me the necessary
hint for the VarLenType.  To get the type that the VarLenType is based
on, I can run DataType::getSuper().getClass().  Then to actually
construct the type (for example, if it is a CompType), then I can use
DataType::getSuper().getClass().getId() in the CompType constructor.

Cheers,
Walter Landry
