A property — an instance of the Rule-Obj-Property rule type — defines and labels a value that can be associated with a class.

For instances contained in the database, a property often corresponds to a relational database column. The term property also applies to the labels for values contained in most clipboard pages.

Property values may have a scalar, array, or unordered list structure. The value of a property may be text strings or entire pages. The set of all properties is sometimes called the data dictionary, or more simply the dictionary.
