public interface Property
A Property
is a representation of data in string form.
Properties are exposed in OSID objects as a means of providing a quick
gestalt of data elements whose specifics are described through a type
specification. A view of an OSID object via Properties allows applications
to browse the content without understanding the type specification in
place, but any acquisition of specific data, access to an object or other
primitive type, or changing the data requires the typed interfaces.
