In the OpenAPI spec <https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/blob/master/versions/3.0.0.md>, each table that lists the properties for an object is titled "Fields". For example, take a look at the Info object. <https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/blob/master/versions/3.0.0.md#info-object> The table here that lists its properties is titled "Fixed Fields." The left column shows the "Field Name."
I thought JSON used the term "Property" or "Member" to describe each item in an object. Can you help me understand why the specification authors chose to use "fields" here? Frequently, as each field is described, the description uses the term property instead of field. How does a field differ from a property in JSON? Is field used to allow for a distinction between "fixed fields" and "patterned fields"? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Swagger" group.
