An AppParameterValue is value which is supplied to a parameter of an Application.

sealed class AppParameterValue {
    class BlockStorage : AppParameterValue()
    class Bool : AppParameterValue()
    class File : AppParameterValue()
    class FloatingPoint : AppParameterValue()
    class Ingress : AppParameterValue()
    class Integer : AppParameterValue()
    class License : AppParameterValue()
    class Network : AppParameterValue()
    class Peer : AppParameterValue()
    class Text : AppParameterValue()
    class TextArea : AppParameterValue()
}

Each value type can is type-compatible with one or more ApplicationParameters. The effect of a specific value depends on its use-site, and the type of its associated parameter.

• Invocation: This affects the command line arguments passed to the software.

• Environment variables: This affects the environment variables passed to the software.

• Resources: This only affects the resources which are imported into the software environment. Not all values can be used as a resource.
