# apiClassifierMember

The <apiClassifierMember> element specifies that the classifier member is a substructure field of the classifier.

#### Description

The <apiClassifierMember> element is an object that is contained in a set (or more) of classes. A class can be derived from more than one base class. In a multiple-inheritance model (where classes are derived from more than one base class), the base classes are specified using the <apiClassifierMember> element.

- apiItemName
  The <apiItemName> element provides the name for substructure of an interface such as parameter of an operation or subfield of a method.
- apiOtherClassifier
  The <apiOtherClassifier> element provides the type for a member classifier.
- apiQualifier
  The <apiQualifier> element specifies a semantic flag that qualifies the interface.
- apiRelation
  The <apiRelation> element specifies a related API item that is part of the declared interface to this API item.
- apiType
  The <apiType> element specifies a type defined by the language itself that is part of the declared interface to this API item.
- apiArray
  The <apiArray> element specifies any type parts, classifier or data within an interface where required.
- apiData
  The <apiData> element specifies the actual value such as the initial value of variable, the default value of a parameter, or the value of a constant.
- apiDefNote
  The <apiDefNote> element provides an optional note element to expand the information about a part of the declared interface for the API item within the <apiDef> element.
