Message Sets: Logical properties for value constraints for simple type Boolean types

The logical properties for simple type Boolean types.

The simple type value constraint properties described here apply to:

  • Objects: Simple types
  • Boolean schema types: Boolean
Property Type Meaning
White Space Enumerated type Set this property to control the processing of white space characters received for this type.
Select one of the following values:
  • preserve. If you set the property to preserve, all white space characters including carriage return, line feed, and tab are preserved.
  • replace. If you set the property to replace, all carriage return, line feed, and tab characters are replaced with a space character.
  • collapse. If you set the property to collapse, all carriage return, line feed, and tab characters are replaced with a space character. All adjacent white space characters are then collapsed to a single space character, and leading or trailing spaces are stripped from the data.

Patterns

Property Type Meaning
Patterns String Patterns are a regular expression, or a series of regular expressions, that are used to constrain the data within the simple type. For further information about patterns and their syntax see Message Sets: Using regular expressions to parse data elements.

Select Add to add a default pattern. Overtype the default with the data you require.
