All Implemented Interfaces:

DesignAttribute, DesignElement

public class ValueDE

extends MultiLineBaseDE

The value type is most commonly used in varables and lists. It can be used like this.

1. To define a value with some nested text.

 <value>Some Text</value>
 

2. To define a value with a value attribute.

 <value value="Some Text"/>
 

This class will read in all the above but when returning the XML it will always inline (1) if the text contains a \n and as a value attribute (2) if it doesn't.
