OpenMetadataTypesArchive (Open Metadata Types 3.6 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.odpi.openmetadata.opentypes.OpenMetadataTypesArchive

```
public class OpenMetadataTypesArchive
extends Object
```
OpenMetadataTypesArchive builds an open metadata archive containing all of the standard open metadata types. These types have hardcoded dates and guids so that however many times this archive is rebuilt, it will produce the same content.
Details of the open metadata types are documented on the wiki: The Open Metadata Type System

There are 8 areas, each covering a different topic area of metadata. The module breaks down the process of creating the models into the areas and then the individual models to simplify the maintenance of this class
