Returns a SCHEMADERIVATIONMEHOD constant. This constant indicates how the type definition was derived.
Implementation syntax
var conDerivedBy = objISchemaType.derivedBy;
Parameters
None.
Return Values
- conDerivedBy
- For simple types, the
derivedByvalue can be one of the following:SCHEMADERIVATIONMETHOD_RESTRICTION
SCHEMADERIVATIONMETHOD_LIST
SCHEMADERIVATIONMETHOD_UNION
For complex types, the
derivedByvalue can be one of the following:SCHEMADERIVATIONMETHOD_EXTENSION
SCHEMADERIVATIONMETHOD_RESTRICTION
For any-type the
derivedByvalue is always as follows:SCHEMADERIVATIONMETHOD_EMPTY
Implementation syntax
conDerivedBy = objISchemaType.derivedBy
Parameters
None.
Return Values
- conDerivedBy
- For simple types, the
derivedByvalue can be one of the following:SCHEMADERIVATIONMETHOD_RESTRICTION

derivedByvalue can be one of the following:SCHEMADERIVATIONMETHOD_EXTENSION
SCHEMADERIVATIONMETHOD_RESTRICTION
For any-type the
derivedByvalue is always as follows:SCHEMADERIVATIONMETHOD_EMPTY
Implementation syntax
HRESULT get_derivedBy(SCHEMADERIVATIONMETHOD* derivedBy);
Parameters
