}bp_xprofile_create_field_type is a public function, and the returned data is
{"name":"","category":"","accepts_null_value":false,"supports_options":true,"supports_multiple_defaults":false,"supports_richtext":false,"field_obj":null}what exactly does $this in the function fill_data mean
Does$this represent the $this- > {$k} array just generated?
