This schema was originally developed by The MITRE Corporation. The STIX XML Schema implementation is maintained by The MITRE Corporation and developed by the open STIX Community.

Specifies the intended order position of this construct instance (e.g. Description) within a set of potentially multiple peer construct instances. If only a single construct instance is present its ordinality can be assumed to be 1. If multiple construct instances are present, the ordinality field should be specified with unique values for each instance.
Used to indicate a particular structuring format (e.g., HTML5) used within an instance of StructuredTextType. Note that if the markup tags used by this format would be interpreted as XML information (such as the bracket-based tags of HTML) the text area should be enclosed in a CDATA section to prevent the markup from interferring with XML validation of the STIX document. If this attribute is absent, the implication is that no markup is being used.

The vocab_reference field specifies the URI to the location of where the controlled vocabulary is defined, e.g., in an externally located XML schema file.

The Specification field encapsulates any test mechnism specification in its native format within a string field. The specification should be within a CDATA construct within the string field.
If true, specifies that the content encoded in the element is encoded using Base64 per RFC4648.
