Chapter 8 XML Representations in the vCloud API
Complex Types
XML
elements
defined
by
the
vCloud API
are
instances
of
complex
types.
For
most
elements,
the
complex
type
name
is
the
element
name
concatenated
with
the
string
Type
(for
example,
the
Org
element
is
an
instance
of
OrgType
,
the
vDC
element
is
an
instance
of
VdcType
,
and
so
on).
In
most
of
these
cases,
the
schema
representation
of
the
element
provides
an
adequate
reference
for
the
underlying
complex
type.
There
are
also
a
few
generic
types
of
which
many
different
kinds
of
element
can
be
an
instance.
Because
these
types
are
not
associated
with
a
particular
kind
of
element,
we
provide
schema
information
for
them
here.
EntityType
This
is
the
base
complex
type
for
elements
such
as
Org
,
vDC
,
and
vApp
.
IpAddressType
The
IpAddressType
imposes
a
pattern
on
the
primitive
xs:string
type.
The
pattern
defines
an
IPv4
address:
<xs:pattern value =
"((25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|[0-9])\.){3}(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0
-9][0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|[0-9])"/>
Attributes
of
this
type
are
invalid
unless
they
conform
to
the
pattern
ReferenceType
Many
container
elements
are
populated
with
references
to
contained
objects.
Each
reference
consists
of
a
hyperlink,
an
optional
media
type,
and
a
name.
Common Attributes
Elements
such
as
Org
,
Catalog
,
and
vDC
have
a
number
of
common
attributes.
With
the
exception
of
name
,
none
of
these
attributes
are
required
in
request
bodies,
and
are
ignored
if
included.
All
of
them
are
included
in
response
bodies.
xs:long
Numeric
value
in
the
range
‐
9223372036854775808
to
9223372036854775807.
xs:int
Numeric
value
in
the
range
‐
2147483648
to
2147483647.
xs:string
Any
character
data.
