Field Summary

Fields
Modifier and Type	Field and Description
`static int`	`STRUCTURE_TYPE_ARRAY` Represents a record set with a single field of any of the other structure types.
`static int`	`STRUCTURE_TYPE_COLUMN` Deprecated. Use `STRUCTURE_TYPE_ARRAY` instead
`static int`	`STRUCTURE_TYPE_FIELD` Represents a primitive type The specific primitive type can be retrieved by calling `IFieldStructure.getType()`
`static int`	`STRUCTURE_TYPE_RECORD` Represents a single record
`static int`	`STRUCTURE_TYPE_RECORD_SET` Represents a record set
`static int`	`STRUCTURE_TYPE_UNION` Represents a union - one of the primitive (will be determined in runtime).

  - STRUCTURE_TYPE_RECORD_SET
```
static final int STRUCTURE_TYPE_RECORD_SET

    Represents a record set
    
    See Also:
    
    IRecordSetStructure, Constant Field Values
  - STRUCTURE_TYPE_RECORD
```
static final int STRUCTURE_TYPE_RECORD
```
    Represents a single record

  - STRUCTURE_TYPE_COLUMN
```
static final int STRUCTURE_TYPE_COLUMN
```
    Deprecated. Use STRUCTURE_TYPE_ARRAY instead

  - STRUCTURE_TYPE_ARRAY
```
static final int STRUCTURE_TYPE_ARRAY
```
    Represents a record set with a single field of any of the other structure types.

    IArrayStructure, Constant Field Values
  - STRUCTURE_TYPE_UNION
```
static final int STRUCTURE_TYPE_UNION
```
    Represents a union - one of the primitive (will be determined in runtime). Possible types can be retrieved by IUnionStructure.getPossibleTypes(). In runtime, one of those types will be returned. This type can be determined by introspection
