==== Remarks ====
 
The Structure Designer can also be started by executing the DEFINE_STRUCT form from the repository outliner in the Application Manager. For the type "char[n]" then length of the char array must be specified. Repository entities are generated for each structure. This enables the deployment of structure definitions using the Runtime Deployment Kit.
