SAS Namespace Types

AbstractProperty

Subtypes

Overview

Used to contain name/value pairs.

The AbstractProperty metadata type defines attributes and associations that are common to all of the property types; however, as a supertype, it should not be instantiated. When defining a metadata object to contain an actual name/value pair, use the Property metadata type or one of the other property metadata types, depending on the usage goal.

Security Inheritance and Enforcement Rules

The following list of associations is used to determine if this object should inherit access controls from another object (inheritance), or if the association is allowed for the object (enforcement). An association will not be created unless the calling user is authorized to update one or both objects involved in the association. For more information about inheritance and enforcement rules, see the SAS Intelligence Platform: Security Administration Guide.
