Data Types

Every attribute implementation must have a data type specified, except when it is linked directly to a table column or implemented through an association. A data type that is used in a BII must always have a native data type that contains an existing LN domain.

If standard conversion is applicable (UTC, boolean, enumerate, or text) then the public data type must match that conversion, unless a conversion hook is specified. If no standard conversion is applicable then public data type must match the native data type (domain), unless a conversion hook is specified.
