this file captures some of the ideas used in the WSDL-like parameter definition files, but as yet is not used for validation the baseparameter definition is mimiced by the contents of a part element in the wsdl important types are defined here that would have special significance.... The list of possible parameter types The enumeration values should have the namespace appended? I have removed them to make castor generate nicer objects Integer Real should really reference the XHTML shema, but just did this for convienience what documentation can be The name that is to be used to display this parameter in te UI A long description of the parameter that might be displayed in the UI to help the user If the parameter has a UCD then use the reference here - it could help in workflow typing... a possible default for this type of parameter - should probably be xs:any, but castor/axis do not deal with this well This would ideally be an enumeration of all the possible types of units? For parameters that can only have one of a list of values Defines what a parameterValue can contain - for the instance document
