| 743 | <p>The first instance has all of the type’s prescribed content. The second instance is missing the name field, which is fine because it is optional (due to the ?). The third instance has an extra field; that is fine because the type definition specifies that it is open (which is also true by default, if open is not specified). To more tightly control object content, specifying closed instead of open in the type definition for SoldierType would have made the third example instance an invalid instance of the type.</p></div> |
