@UML(identifier="RecordSchema", specification=ISO_19103) public interface RecordSchema
A collection of record types. All schemas possess an associated name space within which the record type names are defined. A schema is a flat data structure, similar to a Java package.
Record schemas do not provide a hierarchical framework within which data types may be organized.
Name spaces, however, do define a hierarchical framework for arbitrary
named items. Record schemas can participate in this framework by virtue of the fact that they
are all identified by local name or some subclass. A schema's location
in the hierarchy can be communicated by
getSchemaName().scope().name()
.

@UML(identifier="schemaName", obligation=MANDATORY, specification=ISO_19103) LocalName getSchemaName()
@UML(identifier="description", obligation=MANDATORY, specification=ISO_19103) Map<TypeName,RecordType> getDescription()
@UML(identifier="element", obligation=OPTIONAL, specification=ISO_19103) Collection<RecordType> getElements()
getDescription().values()
.
