The name of the SemanticSignfier to be retrieved The name of the entityType to be searched for, returns a list of the names of all semanticSignifiers if no entityTypeName furnished The name of the SemanticSignifier The name of the underlying EntityType that this SemanticSignifier represents Globally unique alphanumeric ID, represented as a GUID Example: URI to XSD in XML Example: URI to XSL in XML Example: URI to SCHEMATRON or WSDL reference in XML A boolean flag representing the success or failure of the API operation. True indicates that the operation was successful and false indicates a non-successful operation An array of the status-condition structure The state of the IXS for the operation undertaken A 4 digit numeric code representation of the outcome of the API operation. A statusCode instance has two dimensions. First, each statusCode is unique and represents a single specific condition that may occur within the IXS. Second, statusCodes are numeric and their range will indicate a class of conditions that has occurred. For example, status-codes in the range of 1000-1999 indicate a successful operation. A more detailed description of the condition that occurred. An alpha-numeric message describing the outcome of the API operation. An enumeration that indicates the severity of the status-code returned. Creates a semantic signifier definition in the IXS meta data repository. Status Conditions Returned Code Severity Message Locates and returns a semantic signifier definition from the IXS meta data repository Status Conditions Returned Code Severity Message Updates a semantic signifier definition in the IXS meta data repository. Status Conditions Returned Code Severity Message Lists the semantic signifiers defined in the IXS meta data repository. Status Conditions Returned Code Severity Message List the domain hierarchy configured in the IXS meta-data repository. Status Conditions Returned Code Severity Message 1024 Info Domains successfully listed Returns the list of conformance profile names and versions that this implementation of IXS supports. Status Conditions Returned Code Severity Message 1025 Info Conformance Profiles successfully listed Entity Identification Service (IXS): Meta Data Interface
