Attributes | In addition to global attributestype | categorizes the pointer in some respect, using any
convenient set of categories.Status | Optional | Datatype | | Values | The type should indicate the intended function of the
pointer, or the rhetorical relationship between its source and
target. |
| evaluate | specifies the intended meaning when the target of a
pointer is itself a pointer.Status | Optional | Legal values are: | all | if the element pointed to is itself a pointer, then
the target of that pointer will be taken, and so on, until
an element is found which is not a pointer. | one | if the element pointed to is itself a pointer, then
its target (whether a pointer or not) is taken as the target
of this pointer. | none | no further evaluation of targets is carried out
beyond that needed to find the element specified in the
pointer's target. |
| Note | If no value is given, the application program is
responsible for deciding (possibly on the basis of user
input) how far to trace a chain of pointers. |
