Definition

Indicator that the attribute value is determined directly from the content of a database field.

The database field which serves as the information source can generally be identified by the key fields.

Depending on implementation and the specified data type reference, it is necessary to distinguish between the following combinations:

  • Source "database field" - data type reference "Dict. field"

    The content of the referenced field is returned as an attribute value.

  • Source "data base field" - data type reference "object type"

    An object reference which is composed of the content of the database field is returned as an attribute value. Both the dictionary type and the object type should be specified.

    The latter only works if the referenced object type only has one key field. In other cases the attribute should be implemented as a virtual attribute.
