description:

  the test invokes 'void'-functions that effectively overwrite global 
  variables in a structured way.
  
  functions are identified by an id (a number starting at 0).
  
  the implementation of each function does
  
    sets the gID to its id (which is compiled in) 
  
    sets all arguments into type-specific value vectors at the given position
  
  This version is a modification to "test/suite" using only 4 basic types:
  integer, float, double and long long.
