- All Superinterfaces:

- public interface IUnionType
- extends IAnySimpleType
Represents a union type. Union types only exist in the schema but not as actual
types of data. A union type only describes what actual types are allowed
for the corresponding data.
The data creation process of union types differs significantly from the corresponding
process of the other types. A union type does not create any data by itself but
it looks for a suitable member type of the union to create the data.
The code generator generates for union typed properties accessor methods that are
as specific as possible, i.e. the effective type of a union typed property is
the most specific common base type of all member types.
