Encoding considerations :
The GDL is a binary data which may contain one or more text tags.
The GDL (Geometric Description Language) is Graphisoft's parametric
object definition language. It is invented for ArchiCAD and used in many
other applications. The GDL defines a 3D model, a 2D model, property data,
a user interface and a parameter handler. All the above definitions
can be parametric.
A GDL object is a container for the GDL scripts, default parameters,
optional binary data and additonal information (eg. a preview image).
Transports not capable of handling binary data must use a suitable
encoding
Security considerations :
The GDL type data does not contain any kind of executable code macro
