Examples of Using Primitive Types
Primitive types can be used in standard containers (ThingModel, DataModel,, ThingFacet, AppModel, AppFacet) or custom containers (types) defined by users.
General Usage of Primitive Types
Primitive types usage within containers requires primitive type as an XML Named Element. It takes four modifiers -
