Purpose

The

Concept
t900000000000456007|Reference set descriptor|
is a
Gloss
treference set
that is used to specify the format of all
Gloss
treference sets
included in a release. The data type and meaning of the referenced component and each additional field within each
Gloss
treference set
is described by this
Gloss
treference set
.

Gloss
tReference set
descriptor can be used to define

  • The order of appearance of additional attributes (other than those mandatory for all
    Gloss
    treference sets
    );
  • The name and purpose of the additional attributes;
  • The data types for the additional attributes.

This allows for a

Gloss
treference set
to be validated using the metadata embedded within the
Gloss
treference set
descriptor in the following ways:

  • the data type of its attributes may be validated against the data type declared in the
    Gloss
    treference set
    descriptor;
  • the column order can be checked against the
    Gloss
    treference set
    descriptor.

Data structure

The

Gloss
tReference set descriptor reference set
is a
Gloss
tComponent
-
Gloss
tComponent
- Integer
Gloss
treference set
that specifies the structure of reference sets. Its structure is shown in the following table.



Refset spec table
Sizefs7
RefsetTypeReference Set Descriptor Reference Set

At least one row must exist for each 
 Gloss
treference set
 included in a release. This row must have an 
 Specref
RefType(field)
tattributeOrder
 value of '0' and an 
 Specref
RefType(field)
tattributeType
 of ' 
 Gloss
tcomponent
 type' (or one of its 
 Gloss
tdescendants
). The 
 Specref
RefType(field)
treferencedComponentId
 identifies the 
 Gloss
treference set
 defined by the descriptor.
There is one additional row for each additional column present in the specified 
 Gloss
treference set
 .
Creation of 
 Gloss
tReference set
 descriptor data is mandatory when creating a new 
 Gloss
treference set
 in the 
 Gloss
tInternational Release
 or in a 
 Gloss
tNational Extension
 .
Creation of a 
 Gloss
tReference set
 descriptor is optional when creating a 
 Gloss
treference set
 in another 
 Gloss
tExtension
. If a descriptor is not created, the descriptor of the closest 
 Gloss
tancestor
 of the 
 Gloss
treference set
 is used when validating 
 Gloss
treference set
 member records.
