Class DataTypeFormatterBaseAbstract

Services accessor. Note: Not passed into the constructor because this object should be created before ValidationServices itself. So it gets assigned when ValidationService.dataTypeFormatterService is assigned a value.

Provides access to services.

Participates in releasing memory. While not required, the idea is to be a more friendly participant in the ecosystem. Note that once called, expect null reference errors to be thrown if any other functions try to use them.

Evaluates the parameters to determine if its format() method should handle the value with those same parameters. It should always match the DataTypeLookupKey. It does not have to evaluate the cultureID, as there are implementations where the format() function handles eve

Creates a formatted string for the value, applying the goals of the DataTypeLookupKey and making it culture specific.
