Containing Schema: oval-definitions-schema.xsd
Abstract
Documentation:
The constant_variable element extends the VariableType and defines a variable with a constant value(s). Each constant_variable defines either a single value or an array of values to be used throughout the evaluation of the OVAL Definition File in which it has been defined. Constant variables can not be over-ridden by an external source. The actual value of a constant variable is defined by the required value child element. An array of values can be specified by including multiple instances of the value element. Please refer to the description of the ValueType complex type for more information.
