PLM XML Classification Schema Type used for string based unique id's like class id This is the base type for all Types which are used for String values which might appear in different Languages Represents the value of an AdminViewAttribute or an Attribute sub-element of an AdminClass or UserClass. Attributes: isFixed: When ValueType is used to represent a default value, isFixed indicates whether the value can be overridden. This type is intended to serve as a flexible extension mechanism to the existing explicit elements and attributes of any main type Attributes: optionType: allows to define a type for the option like pre or post option name: the name of the option language: the language of the value value: the value of the option This element specifies how the value of an Attribute should be determined - from the classified element, a related element, or another ICO. Attributes: className: The name of the class of the referenced element. attributeName: The name of the referenced attribute. referenceType: A string describing the type of reference. Defined values are classifiedObject - the reference is to an attribute of the classified object. relatedObject - the reference is to an attribute of an object related to the classified object - the relation name is given by the "relationName" attribute. ICOAttribute - the reference is to another ICO, by icoId. relationName: If referenceType is "relatedObject", this gives the name of the relation used to relate the classified object to the referenced object. useProduct: If this is "true", and the classifiedObject is a ProductRevision, then the corresponding Product will be used instead. If, in addition, the referenceType is "relatedObject", then the relation will apply to the Product and the referenced element. This extension of the ExternalFileType allows to define which role the document will have like icon, image, etc. Attributes: usage: The attribute specified what the file is used for e.g. Icon, Image or PartFamilyTemplate. Which values are possible depends on the context where this type is used. This group collects all attributes common to the attribute definition of the AdminClassAttributeType and the UserClassAttributeType attributeId: the unique id of the attribute with an optional reference to the DictionaryAttributeType if it exists in the same Document. isMandatory: indicates that the value for this attribute is mandotory while creating instances of a class. isProtected: indicates that te values of this attribute are protected. isUnique: indicates that the value of this attribute needs to be unique. It is possible that multiple attributes of a class are marked as unique. in this case the value combination of these attributes needs to be unique. isLocalValue: indicates that the values of this attribute are not synched with other ICOs classifying the same object (multiple classification) isPropagated: indicates that the value for this attribute is set through the "propagation" during saving. arraySize: if greater than 1 the attribute is interpreted as an array of the specified size isReference: indicates that this value is actually specified in a referenced location hasFixedDefaultValue: defines that the specified Default value will be enforced in all instances of the class isAutoComputed: Whether the attribute is automatically computed. Attributes: isDeprecated: Whether the Value is deprecated.

This type is intended to serve as a flexible extension mechanism to the existing explicit elements and attributes of the class attributes. Attributes: optionType: allows to define a type for the option like pre or post option name: the name of the option language: the language of the value value: the value of the option Attributes: CommonClassAttrAttributes: Elements: Annotation: The Annotation is used to identify a attribute within one class and act as a reference into a related class image which visualises the attribute. If no value is given a default value is taken from the Annotation definition in the dictionary attribute definition MinValue: Defines the minimum allowed value for values of this attribute in metric units. This definition overwrites the definition in the dictionary attribute definition and must be greater than or equal to the definition there. MaxValue: Defines the maximum allowed value for values of this attribute in metric units.

Elements: Parent: Attribute: sdkname=UserAttribute Attributes: attributeId: language: icoRef: Holds the reference to another ICO if the the property is of type reference to ICO. Elements: Value: A property might have single or multiple values The view definition is related to a class. It allows configuration of the appearance of a class for certain users and/or groups. Attributes: icoId: The id of the ICO. In case there is no wsoRef specified the icoId is treated to be unique unless a corresponding workspace object exists in the target database relatedRefs: References to other ICOs classifying the same WSO wsoRef: Reference to the classified object if defined in the XML document unitBase: Indicates the unit base. english and metric mean english and metric unit bases respectively. inherited means that the unit base is inherited from the containing AdminClass. HistoryAttributes: Elements: ClassId: The ClassId defines to which class this ICO belongs. The ref2Class attribute is set if that class is defined within the same plmxml document. On import that class definition has to be successfully imported to allow the ICO to be imported. Parent: This element lists ALL parents of the class the ICO is stored in. The primary use is to support a mapping into a different class hierarchy without the transfer of the class definition to get the isMemberOf information. On import this information will be ignored. Property: The actual format of property value is defined by the attribute definition referenced by attributeId File: GeneralOption: General Options for the ICO definition. Elements of this type relate their parent element to its classification information (ICO). Attributes: icoRefs: Reference to ICO elements.
