Class NOMWriteTypeElement

java.lang.Object
  net.sourceforge.nite.nom.nomwrite.impl.NOMWriteElement
      net.sourceforge.nite.nom.nomwrite.impl.NOMWriteTypeElement

All Implemented Interfaces:

NOMElement, NOMTypeElement

public class NOMWriteTypeElement
extends NOMWriteElement
implements NOMTypeElement

NOMTypeElement extends NOMElement and represents an element within a type hierarchy or "ontology". Such elements extend NOMElement so that they can be used in the query language (though in general they will not be returned as search results). Type elements only have one attribute (named in the metadata file) which holds the type name.
