Metadata declaration in package specification¶

Each PL/SQL package in IFS Applications must contain a section with metadata that describe what component and type of package it is. This information is then used by the runtime dictionary for various purposes.

Example of correct metamodel definition for a LU in component movie with file name Actor.api

module_  CONSTANT VARCHAR2(25) := 'MOVIE';  
lu_name_ CONSTANT VARCHAR2(25) := 'Actor';  
lu_type_ CONSTANT VARCHAR2(6)  := 'Entity';

Note: Services and search domains have similar declarations, but the variable name is service_ or search_domain_ instead of lu_name_.
