public interface Property

A Property is a representation of data in string form. Properties are exposed in Browsables as a means of providing a quick gestalt of data elements whose specifics are described through an OsidRecord . A view of a Browsable via Properties allows applications to browse the content without understanding the OsidRecord , but data modification or access to a primitive type requires knowledge of the OsidRecord .
