Atomic Simple Types

---

Atomic simple types include boolean, integer, double, decimal, and types derived from these base types. The classes generated for these types include a value member that can be assigned to directly. They also include a parameterized constructor that allows assignment through construction and an assignment operator that makes it possible to do assignment directly through the `=' sign without having to use the value member. This makes assignment compatible with the C case.

For example, the following simple integer type declaration:

   <xsd:simpleType name="EmployeeNumber">
      <xsd:restriction base="xsd:integer"/>
   </xsd:simpleType>

causes a class with the following constructors and assignment operator to be generated:

class EmployeeNumber : public OSRTBaseType {
public:
   OSINT32 value;
   EmployeeNumber ();
   EmployeeNumber (OSINT32 value);
   EmployeeNumber& operator= (OSINT32 value);

This makes it possible to assign an employee number in any of the following ways:

EmployeeNumber empno (33);

or

EmployeeNumber empno;
empno.value = 33;

or

EmployeeNumber empno;
empno = 33;
