Below is the underlying C structs. +The main class that the user uses to store and read parameter object to and from files is __nerv.ChunkFile__. +In the file, a parameter object will be saved using a standard format. First is the length(in byte) of this object, then a table which includes some meta information of the object, and a data area.
