**\#include**

`<a href="classIRockyPluginDataEntry.md#classIRockyPluginDataEntry">IRockyPluginDataEntry</a>` is a data unit corresponding to a single entity in Rocky (a geometry, a material interaction, etc). It gives access to values of custom module data entered manually through the Rocky UI. `<a href="classIRockyPluginDataEntry.md#classIRockyPluginDataEntry">IRockyPluginDataEntry</a>` may contain boolean, integer, double precision, and string data. Data arranged in lists of `<a href="classIRockyPluginDataEntry.md#classIRockyPluginDataEntry">IRockyPluginDataEntry</a>` is also allowed. The value of a parameter is retrieved passing to the corresponding function the name string, as specified in the Python file that defines the components of the module.
