Interface ExtrinsicObject

All Superinterfaces:
ExtensibleObject, RegistryEntry, RegistryObject, Versionable

public interface ExtrinsicObject
extends RegistryEntry

ExtrinsicObjects provide metadata that describes submitted content whose type is not intrinsically known to the registry and therefore must be described by means of additional attributes (e.g., mime type).

Examples of content described by ExtrinsicObject include Collaboration Protocol Profiles (CPP), business process descriptions, and schemas.
