java.lang.Object

com.sun.identity.sm.AttributeSchema.Type

Enclosing class:

AttributeSchema

public static class AttributeSchema.Type
extends Object

The class Type defines the types of schema attributes and provides static constants for these types. This could also be viewed as a higher level structured data types like Set, List, etc. The primitive data types are defined by Syntax. Currently defined schema attribute types are SINGLE, LIST, SINGLE_CHOICE, MULTIPLE_CHOICE, SIGNATURE and VALIDATOR.
