Defines a subordinate container to the <apiOperation> element for generic topic types such as constants, variables, enumerations, structures, or other named values.
The named values can be nested as part of a classifier or package interface.
The following example shows a simple <apiValue> element for Visual Basic parameters:
<apiOperation id=”com.ibm.xtools”>
<apiValue id="startWriteAction">
<apiName>theNameOPT</apiName>
<apiValueDetail>
<apiValueDef>
<apiQualifier name="type" value="string"/>
<apiValueClassifier href="../string.html" type="html" scope="local">
String
</apiValueClassifier>
<apiDefNote>A string that provides the name to assign to the action.
Providing a valid value for this parameter is optional.
</apiDefNote>
</apiValueDef>
</apiValueDetail>
</apiValue>
<apiValue id="startWriteAction">
<apiName>delimiterOPT</apiName>
<apiValueDetail>
<apiValueDef>
<apiQualifier name="parameter" value="delimiterOPT"/>
<apiValueClassifier
href="../string.html" type="html" scope="local">
String
</apiValueClassifier>
<apiDefNote>
A string that provides the text that you want to use to separate the stereotype
names. Providing a valid value for this parameter is optional.
</apiDefNote>
</apiValueDef>
</apiValueDetail>
</apiValue>
</apiOperation>
