Element	Description

Parent elements

Element	Description
relationshipMetadata	Describes the host and hosted metadata for the device.

Remarks

The hosting metadata appears in this element in a form similar to the one specified in the device profile. hostMetadata is slightly different from the format described in the device profile in that the only reference property it supports is the service ID.

The relationshipMetadataDefinition element is used subsequently to generate a C constant containing this information.
