#### XDS/CDS Object Types

Following is a list of all the object types that are described in the following subtopics. Most of these objects are object structures; that is, compounds consisting of superobjects that contain subobjects as some of their values. These latter may in turn contain other objects, and so on. Subobjects are indicated by indentation. A DS_C_DS_DN object contains at least one DS_C_DS_RDN object, and each of the latter contains one DS_C_AVA object. Note that subobjects can, and often do, exist by themselves, depending on what object class is called for by a given function. This list contains all the possible kinds of objects that can be required as input for any XDS/CDS operation.

· DS_C_ATTRIBUTE_LIST

- DS_C_ATTRIBUTE

· DS_C_DS_DN

- DS_C_DS_RDN

- DS_C_AVA

· DS_C_ENTRY_MOD_LIST

- DS_C_ENTRY_MOD

· DS_C_ENTRY_INFO_SELECTION

In each topic, information is provided for the described object's attributes. All of its attributes are listed.

The illustrations in the following topics can be compared to the same object classes' tabular definitions later in this guide.
