A Parameter identifies something passed from one part of a
computer system to another. In this regard Parameter is
fairly generic, but it may have a more constrained semantic in some
contexts (for example in a ParamDef).
In a document that describes more than one kind of parameter,
for example, parameters to functions and commands, the
Class attribute can be used to distinguish
between them, if necessary.
Formatted inline. The MoreInfo attribute
can help generate a link or query to retrieve additional information.
In DocBook V4.0, the content model of Parameter will
be constrained to (#PCDATA | Replaceable |
InlineGraphic).
These elements contain parameter:
action, application, attribution, bibliomisc, bridgehead, citation, citetitle, classsynopsisinfo, code, command, computeroutput, database, emphasis, entry, filename, firstterm, foreignphrase, funcparams, funcsynopsisinfo, function, glosssee, glossseealso, glossterm, hardware, interfacename, keycap, lineannotation, link, literal, literallayout, lotentry, member, methodparam, msgaud, olink, option, optional, para, paramdef, parameter, phrase, primary, primaryie, productname, programlisting, property, quote, refdescriptor, refentrytitle, refname, refpurpose, remark, screen, screeninfo, secondary, secondaryie, see, seealso, seealsoie, seeie, seg, segtitle, simpara, subtitle, synopsis, systemitem, td, term, termdef, tertiary, tertiaryie, th, title, titleabbrev, tocback, tocentry, tocfront, trademark, ulink, userinput.
