Value Type Editor
The Value Type Editor is the editor which allows you to alter any aspect
of a value type definition: its fields and its code generation information.
You open a value type definition in its Value Type Editor by selecting it in
the Project Explorer
and then right-clicking it and selecting 'Edit...', or by pressing cntrl-shift-O.
The value type editor consists of the following main parts:
- Fields tab. This tab contains the information and editors for
working with the fields of the value type definition and the unique
constraints defined over these fields
- Code gen. Info tab. This tab contains the information and
editors for the code generation related data of the value type
definition and its
containing elements.
At the top of the Value Type Editor you'll find the following editor
elements:
- Value type name. This is the name of the value type
definition
- Group name. This is the name of the group the value type
definition is in.
You can select an existing one or specify a new one. If left empty, the
value type definition is in the unnamed group
