The attribute value types are defined in the next section, VALUE TYPES .
Vendor-Defined Attributes
You can create your own software attributes when packaging software. Keywords in a product
specification file that are not recognized by SD are preserved, along with their associated values, by being
transferred to the resulting INDEX or INFO files created by
swpackage or swcopy. (Refer to swpack-
age(4) for more information on INDEX and INFO files.)
The keyword is a filename character string. The value associated with a keyword is processed as an
attribute_value. It can be continued across multiple input lines or can reference a file containing the
value for the keyword.
Vendor-defined attributes are noted during packaging or when modified with
swmodify. These attri-
butes can be listed with
swlist.
