public final class ValueType
extends TypedString<ValueType>
```
The type of a value.
The market data system contains many different kinds of value, and this type can be used to identify them.
For example, constants are provided for common financial concepts, such as discount factors, zero rates and year fractions. The set of types is fully extensible.

    Obtains an instance from the specified name.
    Value types must only contains the characters A-Z, a-z, 0-9 and -.
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - the name of the field
    
    Returns:
    
    a field with the specified name
  - checkEquals
```
public void checkEquals(ValueType other,
