| May 23, 2017 at 19:26 | comment | added | mmmmmm | @EJMak type is never a good word to see in a definition as it is not well defined:) In this case read the document in "Properties of Objects and Samples" you will find more exact defintions. Types are predefined and they are a name for what is beiung sampled/ | |
| May 23, 2017 at 19:05 | comment | added | EJ Mak | Your excerpt is interesting, but I don't understand how it supports your claim that custom fields cannot be added. Your posted excerpt refers to "types" (such as integer or float) and "units" (such as Celsius or milligrams). It doesn't say anything about why a third party cannot create a custom field. Will you please clarify? ("Field" not be the proper term here since it looks like HealthKit is programmed with OOP, but hopefully you know what I mean.) | |
