XML Description of State Properties

Both universal and creatable objects can have state properties. The getState, getStateList, and getAllStates commands return an XML document describing the current state of one or more objects.

The <search:state> element describes the current state of an object.

<search:state>
   <search:objectStates>
      <search:objectState>
         <search:objectState>
         <search:objectType>

<!-- For creatable objects -->
            <search:objectKey>
               <search:keyPairs>
                  <search:keyPair>
                     <search:name>
                     <search:value>

<!-- For all objects -->
         <search:stateProperties>
            <search:stateProperty>
               <search:propertyName>
               <search:propertyValues>
                  <search:propertyValue>
                     <search:propertyValue>
