Component Condition Example
delimited group with a terminator. The
system assumes the terminator will
appear to indicate that there are no more
Security Sequences.
Component of an Implicit Group
Its range is fixed and its type is
bound.
The component Inventory Record (3:3)
is bound, if the type Inventory Record is
bound according to any of the conditions
listed in the Bound Types table.
It has a component rule that binds
it.
The component PO Record (s) is bound,
if it has the following component rule
which binds it:
PO# Field:PO Record = PO# Field:PO
Record[LAST]
Note The type tree analysis checks only
that the component has a rule that refers
to the component itself. The analysis does
not check that the rule binds the
component. You must ensure that the rule
is one that binds the component.
It is sized (using the Sized attribute)
by the component that precedes it.
The component Name Field (0:2) is
bound, if the previous component in the
group has the Sized attribute. For
information on the Sized attribute, see the
Sized Attribute.
Component of a Choice Group
A component is bound if the type of
a component is bound.
The component Customer Record is
bound if the type Customer Record is
bound.
Component of an Unordered Group
A component is bound if its range is
fixed and its type is bound.
The component Address Field is bound if
its range is fixed, for example (3:3), and
the type Address Field is bound.
