`<fsDecl>` | (feature structure declaration) declares one type of feature structure.

Attributes:

`type` | gives a name for the type of feature structure being declared.
| Datatype: CDATA
| Values: any convenient string of characters.
| Default: #REQUIRED

Example:

Note |

`baseType`

gives the name of the feature structure type from which this type inherits features and constraints; if this type declares a feature with the same name as a feature of the base type, the definition within this `<fsDecl>` overrides the inherited definition. The `<fsConstraints>` are inherited only if this `<fsDecl>` does not specify any; otherwise the constraints in this `<fsDecl>` override. When no `baseType` is specified, no features or constraints are inherited.

| Datatype: CDATA
| Values: any convenient string for use as a name.
