Currently it supports the following types: Simple types: int, string, Enum, DateTime, Uri, etc. Complex types: POCO types. Nullables: Nullable{T}. Arrays: arrays of simple types or complex types. Key value pairs: KeyValuePair{TKey,TValue} Tuples: Tuple{T1}, Tuple{T1,T2}, etc Dictionaries: IDictionary{TKey,TValue} or anything deriving from IDictionary{TKey,TValue}. Collections: IList{T}, IEnumerable{T}, ICollection{T}, IList, IEnumerable, ICollection or anything deriving from ICollection{T} or IList. Queryables: IQueryable, IQueryable{T}.
