ISAXAttributes::getType Method (Compact 2013)

3/26/2014

This method finds an attribute by index and returns the attribute's type, as declared in the document type definition (DTD) or schema. If there is no DTD or schema or the schema type does not map directly to a DTD attribute type, the return value is "CDATA". For ambiguous names, the type from the first namespace is returned.
