Interface MeasureResource

All Superinterfaces:

ArcEnd, Comparable<XML>, ExtendedLinkContent, Fragment, MixedContentResource, Resource, Serializable, Xlink, XML

All Known Implementing Classes:

MeasureResourceImpl

public interface MeasureResource
extends MixedContentResource

Defines the functionality for the custom unit resource: a extended link resource that has a 1:1 association with a given Unit measure. Each unit resource defines a pairing of a namespace and a localname. Together these define a measure that can be used in XBRL units of measurement.
