Extended attributes are used in a DBMS to control model generation.
You can also define extended attributes in an extended model definition, to further define an object. These extended attributes are not used during generation.
For more information on extended model definitions, see Extended Model Definitions.
By default, extended attributes appear in the Extended Attributes tab, in a user-defined tab or in object lists.
Each extended attribute has the following properties:
|
