Interface ATDReference

    public interface ATDReference
    extends UserAttributeContainer, PluginDataContainer, Serializable
    The lightweight representation of an ActivityTemplateDefinition for usage in the activity repository. This reference allows to return just the data necessary to display the ActivityTemplateDefinition to the user.

    References are not subject of inheritance; all attributes are the result of merging the corresponding attributes of all parent entities. Therefore when changing an entity, always refresh the corresponding reference and all references of the children.
