<TypeInfo>:

An integer that is the or-ing of bits for each product listed below. The default setting is 0xffffffff (4294967295) which indicates valid for all products. In the component editing dialog, checking different boxes in the "Specify products for which this component is valid" grid control sets specific flags that correspond to the following hex/decimal settings:

Nexxim -- 100 binary, 4 decimal, 0x4

SIwaveDeNovo -- 1000 binary, 8 decimal, 0x8

Simplorer -- 10000 binary, 16 decimal, 0x10

MaxwellCircuit -- 100000 binary, 32 decimal, 0x20

<ModifiedOnInfo>:

An integer that corresponds to the number of seconds that have elapsed since 00:00 hours, Jan 1, 1970 UTC from the system clock.
