Object type codes in ENTITY table
In the ENTITY table, the Class column identifies a class with a number, where Diagram = 1, Symbol = 2 and Definition = 3. Each class has its own set of types for that class. For example, class Diagram can be of many different types, since there are many Types of diagrams. The table below lists the codes used to identify the Type of diagram, symbol, or definition for a given class. The codes are listed in ascending numerical order.
See also Symbol (more than one type code).
