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>
