Message part properties

The General tab contains the following properties:

Property Description
Name Specifies the name of the item, which should be clear and meaningful, and should convey the item's purpose to non-technical users.
Code Specifies the technical name of the object, which is used for generating code or scripts.
Comment Specifies a descriptive comment for the object.
Stereotype Extends the semantics of an object derived from existing objects but specific to your needs. You can type stereotypes directly in this field, or add stereotypes to the list by specifying them in your model's resource file or in an extended model definition.
Data type Specifies the data type of the message part. You can choose from a list of simple data types or click the Select Object tool next to the list to select an XML element, a simple or a complex type from the XML models attached to a service provider via an XSD document.
Element type Specifies whether the variable is an XSD element type. If you have defined a complex type (XSD element) in the Data type list, you should select this check box for the complex type element to be generated. The value of the data type is the name of the element prefixed by the namespace.
