Viewing Package Entry Properties

To view a package entry's properties

1. Select the package entry from the Package Entry View.

2. Select the Properties icon from the toolbar ().

   A dialog box is displayed that contains the properties for the selected entry.

    

   The following properties are displayed:

   • the description of the entry.
   • the MIME type of the package entry.
   • name/value pairs for the entry, if they were specified when the entry was created. If all of the name/value pairs are not visible, use the right arrow key on your keyboard to scroll through the list.
     

     Note: Name/value pairs enable the publisher to provide specific information about individual entries within the package. With knowledge of name/value pairs, an applications developer can write an application that retrieves package entries according to specific criteria.
