    Subclasses of OpenType in javax.management.openmbean
    Modifier and Type | Class | Description
    --- | --- | ---
    `class` | `ArrayType<T>` | The `ArrayType` class is the open type class whose instances describe all open data values which are n-dimensional arrays of open data values.
    `class` | `CompositeType` | The `CompositeType` class is the open type class whose instances describe the types of `CompositeData` values.
    `class` | `SimpleType<T>` | The `SimpleType` class is the open type class whose instances describe all open data values which are neither arrays, nor `CompositeData` values, nor `TabularData` values.
    `class` | `TabularType` | The `TabularType` class is the open type class whose instances describe the types of `TabularData` values.
