When we export an XML structure, what does the "type" attribute indicate?
For example, here is a snippet, from an XML Structure Export, for 3-fields: date, time and boolean. --- <field name="Date_field" uuid="6D36F96B0E964542B809CE18B4B0FD88" type="8" never_null="true" id="5"/> <field name="Time_field" uuid="B0081527368943C9A87669BE14C5D664" type="9" never_null="true" id="6"/> <field name="Boolean_field" uuid="6A053EE809184E0D8F4306386061FEAD" type="1" never_null="true" id="7"/> --- The above "type" attribute values do *NOT* correspond with the values returned the 4D command "Type". For example: 1) Date field: attribute "type" is 8, but the type command returns 4. 2) Time field: attribute "type" is 9, but the type command returns 11. 3) Boolean attribute "type" is 1, but the type command returns 6.
