In the example code below, the editor property is defined. The required attribute of the editor property is set to true. If not overwritten by a propertyReference, the editor property will be mandatory for any object of a type containing the editor property in its definition.

Since the editor property should be optional for an imported1 document, the required attribute is set to false by means of a propertyReference.

In the example code below, the editor property is not included directly in the imported2 document type definition. But it is based on the non-static (floating) secondary object type noeditor. The definition of noeditor uses the editor property and sets its required attribute to false by means of a propertyReference. Thus, for documents of the type imported2, the editor property will be available and optional.

In the example code below, a document type imported3 is defined. The editor property is included, but the required attribute is overwritten to false which makes the editor property optional. However, the two secondary object types noeditor and witheditor may have different values specified for the required attribute of the editor property.
