SDO_DAS_DataFactory::addPropertyToType — Adds a property to a type

### Description

void SDO_DAS_DataFactory::addPropertyToType ( string `$parent_type_namespace_uri` , string `$parent_type_name` , string `$property_name` , string `$type_namespace_uri` , string `$type_name` [, array `$options` ] )
Warning

This function is EXPERIMENTAL. The behaviour of this function, the name of this function, and anything else documented about this function may change without notice in a future release of PHP. Use this function at your own risk.

Adds a property to a type. The type must already be known to the SDO_DAS_DataFactory (i.e. have been added using addType()). The property becomes a property of the type. This is how the graph model for the structure of an SDO_DataObject is built.

### Parameters

`parent_type_namespace_uri`

  The namespace URI for the parent type.

`parent_type_name`

  The type name for the parent type.

`property_name`

  The name by which the property will be known in the parent type.

`type_namespace_uri`

  The namespace URI for the type of the property.

`type_name`

  The type name for the type of the property

`options`

  This array holds one or more key=>value pairs to set attribute values for the property. The optional keywords are:

  `many`

    A flag to say whether the property is many-valued. A value of 'true' adds the property as a many-valued property (default is 'false').

  `readOnly`

    A flag to say whether the property is read-only. A value of 'true' means the property value cannot be modified through the SDO application APIs (default is 'false').

  `containment`

    A flag to say whether the property is contained by the parent. A value of 'true' means the property is contained by the parent. A value of 'false' results in a non-containment reference (default is 'true'). This flag is only interpreted when adding properties which are data object types, otherwise it is ignored.

  `default`

    A default value for the property. Omitting this key means that the property does not have a default value. A property can only have a default value if it is a single-valued data type (primitive).

### Return Values

None.

### ChangeLog

Version | Description
--- | ---
0.5.2 | Optional parameters many, readOnly, and containment deprecated in favour of the options array.

### Examples

Example#1 A SDO_DAS_DataFactory::addPropertyToType() example

The following adds an 'addressline' property to a Person type. The person type is identified by its namespace, 'PersonNS', and type name, 'PersonType'. The type of the 'addressline' property is a many-valued SDO data type (primitive) with namespace 'commonj.sdo' and type name 'String'.

`<?php
$df->addPropertyToType('PersonNS', 'PersonType',
'addressline', 'commonj.sdo', 'String', array('many'=>true));
?>`
