Waveset ObjectClass Schema

The ObjectClass schema can be extended for User and Role types, but otherwise cannot be changed. The ObjectClass schema is used by programs executing on the Waveset servers to provide access to the data objects themselves. This schema is compiled into Waveset and represents the data that is stored and operated on within Waveset.

This schema may change between versions of Waveset, but is abstract to the data warehouse because of the export schema. The ObjectClass schema provides a schema abstraction on top of the Waveset Persistent Object layer, which are the data objects stored in the Waveset repository.

Custom User and Role attributes, also known as extended attributes, are defined in the IDMSchemaConfiguration object. See Chapter 12, Editing Configuration Objects for information about adding extended attributes to the ObjectClass schema.
