Class authority identifier. Identifies the authority for a class’s definition.

OcaUint16 Sentinel

Sentinel signifying an Authority ID

OcaUint8 Reserved

Reserved, must be zero.

OcaClassIDField

using OcaClassIDField = FieldType

Class identifier field. There is one of these for each level in the ClassID. The normative definition of the Class identifier is given in Part 1 of this standard, in the section entitled “Class identifiers”. The UML definition given here is intended to be identical, but in the case of any discrepancy, Part 1 shall be definitive.

OcaClassID

struct OcaClassID

Class identifier : vector that describes the class’s ancestry. The normative definition of the Class identifier is given in Part 1 of this standard, in the section entitled “Class identifiers”.

OcaUint16 FieldCount

Identifies the number of fields of the ClassID, i.e. the level of the class tree the class is in. For example if this field count is 3, the ClassID is of the form ‘n.m.p’. The minimum field count is 1 (OcaRoot class). A field count of zero is invalid.
