Property model

Size: 64 bit / 8 byte (value)
The handle to the model. The model handle is static during its existance. Several models can be opened simultaniously within one session. Different models are always independent, threads are allowed to be running on different models simultaniously.

Property itemIndex

Size: 64 bit / 8 byte (value)
...

Property itemSubIndex

Size: 64 bit / 8 byte (value)
...

Property valueType

Size: 64 bit / 8 byte (value)
...

Property value

Size: 64 bit / 8 byte (reference)
