All Implemented Interfaces:

Type

public class VirtualType
extends java.lang.Object
implements Type

This class represents a VirtualType which is a JAXFront type. VirtualTypes exist only within JAXFront, they cannot be defined in an XML Schema and cannot be bound to an XML instance. Virtual Types are used in placing a formula field within a table layout.
