N - Numeric conversion, loss of information possible (see note below).

L - Shallow copy — Copies only the current value.

D - Deep copy — Copies the entire structure of the contained concept (current values of all properties only).

ID - Basically a shallow or reference-only copy. The copy refers to the same instance of the concept.

Note:
  • History is never copied.
  • Data loss is possible for conversions from String to a number datatype if the string represents a very large number that would have to be clipped.
  • Datatype conversion tables for events are located in the TIBCO Rendezvous and TIBCO Enterprise Message Service documentation.
