Common Types
This chapter describes the common data types. There are three main categories of common types:
- Primitive Types are the most basic data types. These are built-in types, which are defined in the W3C XML Schema Data Types specification.
- Simple Types are custom types that are usually derived from primitive types with additional restrictions imposed on them.
- Complex Types are custom types that can contain attributes and elements.
Each category is described in detail in the following sections.
