Chapter 12 Concepts : Concept Resource Reference

Concept Resource Reference
Concept resources are descriptive entities similar to the object-oriented concept of a class. They describe a set of properties. For example, one concept might be Department, and it could include department name, manager, and employee properties.
Wizard and Configuration Tab
The Wizard and Configuration tab have the following fields.
Properties
The Properties tab has the following fields:
String, Integer, Long, Double, Boolean, DateTime, ContainedConcept, ConceptReference
When you create a property of type ContainedConcept, you are creating a containment relationship. The concept that you are currently configuring is the container; the concept you specify as a property is the contained concept.
When you create a property of type ConceptReference you are creating a property that references another concept.
See Concept Relationships in TIBCO BusinessEvents Architect’s Guide for more details.
Note: For properties of type Double, when a backing store is used, all NaN (Not a Number) values are converted to 0.00.
Changes Only TIBCO BusinessEvents records the value of the property every time it changes to a new value.
All Values TIBCO BusinessEvents records the value of the property every time an action sets the value even if the new value is the same as the old value.
Note: Use of a temporal function with a concept that has a history size of 0 may cause a runtime exception.
Metadata
The Metadata section is used in a special way with database concepts. Requires TIBCO BusinessEvents Data Modeling. See TIBCO BusinessEvents Data Modeling Developer’s Guide for details. It is not used otherwise (except for customization, which is not documented).
