How do you use a custom data type with node. Explicitely how would I insert the examle datatype into a res file for a node so that it is a parameter? If I try putting in a port of type CUSTOMDATATYPE_EXAMPLE, or 123123123, I get an error reading the res file for the node in Xpresso.

You should use the string returned by CustomDataTypeClass::GetResourceSym() in resource files, for example "ExampleDataType".
