Class PRS_Attachment
extends PRS_ExchangeElement

PRS_Attachment describes file attachments. A PRS_Attachment may be associated to any object derived from PRS_ExchangeElement. PRS_Attachment is used to attach objects of any type including binary files, ASCII documents, or URLs. Only one object may be attached per PRS_Attachment. The actual attachment carried by the Attachment object is included by one of two methods: by reference or by value as embedded data. A 'by reference' approach links indirectly to the attachment through the use of a string identifier, e.g. a file name. An 'embedded data' approach means the actual binary data is included in PRS_Attachment.

AttachmentObjectstring
DescriptionstringThe attachment itself, if embedded.None TRANSLATABLE= true
AttachmentReferencestring
DescriptionstringIf the attachment is not embedded, where the attachment is located.None TRANSLATABLE= true
AttachmentSizestring
DescriptionstringThe size of the attachment in bytes.None TRANSLATABLE= true
AttachmentTypeuint8
DescriptionstringThe purpose of the attachment, as related to the diagnosis. 'Instructions' are compilable code. 'Background' is descriptive information. 'Log' is information captured in a log file.None TRANSLATABLE= true

Descriptionstring
DescriptionstringThe Description property provides a textual description of the object.None TRANSLATABLE= true
DirtyFlaguint8
DescriptionstringThe DirtyFlag is used by the SISService Start Transaction method to determine whether an ExchangeElement has been created, modified or deleted since the last Transaction. Any object not marked 'Clean' is included in the next Transaction. It is the responsibility of the entity creating, modifying or deleting the object derived from ExchangeElement to set this property appropriately. This property value is set to 'Clean' by an invocation of the Transaction Complete method with a Status parameter of zero (0).None TRANSLATABLE= true
ValueMapstring0, 1, 2, 3None None
ValuesstringClean, New, Modified, DeletedNone TRANSLATABLE= true
ElementNamestring
DescriptionstringA user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each instance to define a user-friendly name IN ADDITION TO its key properties/identity data, and description information. Note that ManagedSystemElement's Name property is also defined as a user-friendly name. But, it is often subclassed to be a Key. It is not reasonable that the same property can convey both identity and a user friendly name, without inconsistencies. Where Name exists and is not a Key (such as for instances of LogicalDevice), the same information MAY be present in both the Name and ElementName properties.None TRANSLATABLE= true
Formatstring
DescriptionstringThe file format of the attachment.None TRANSLATABLE= true
Protocolstring
DescriptionstringProtocol required to read the attachment (e.g., http).None TRANSLATABLE= true
PRSUniqueNamestring
DescriptionstringThe PRSUniqueName property is a Globally Unique IDentifier (GUID) also known as a Universally Unique IDentifier (UUID). This property allows Solution and Service Incident objects to be used by multiple Solutions or Service Incidents without duplication. In addition, all Solution or Service Incidents containing a unique object are updated when the object is updated.None TRANSLATABLE= true
