    public interface DictionaryType
extends DefinitionType
    A representation of the model object 'Dictionary Type'. A non-abstract bag that is specialized for use as a dictionary which contains a set of definitions. These definitions are referenced from other places, in the same and different XML documents. In this restricted type, the inherited optional "description" element can be used for a description of this dictionary. The inherited optional "name" element can be used for the name(s) of this dictionary. The inherited "metaDataProperty" elements can be used to reference or contain more information about this dictionary. The inherited required gml:id attribute allows the dictionary to be referenced using this handle.

    The following features are supported:

      • getGroup

        FeatureMap getGroup()
        Returns the value of the 'Group' attribute list. The list contents are of type FeatureMap.Entry.

        If the meaning of the 'Group' attribute list isn't clear, there really should be more of a description here...

        Returns:
        the value of the 'Group' attribute list.

      • getDictionaryEntryGroup

        FeatureMap getDictionaryEntryGroup()
        Returns the value of the 'Dictionary Entry Group' attribute list. The list contents are of type FeatureMap.Entry. An entry in this dictionary. The content of an entry can itself be a lower level dictionary or definition collection. This element follows the standard GML property model, so the value may be provided directly or by reference. Note that if the value is provided by reference, this definition does not carry a handle (gml:id) in this context, so does not allow external references to this specific entry in this context. When used in this way the referenced definition will usually be in a dictionary in the same XML document.
        Returns:
        the value of the 'Dictionary Entry Group' attribute list.
