Any Type - Xyna-Factory/xyna GitHub Wiki
The Any Type is a special Data Type, which can be seen as the base type of all Data Types. It is stored as base.AnyType and can be found in the Standard Application named base.
In some cases it might be necessary to use the Any Type as the Input Parameter or Output Parameter of a Service (cf. Notify and Await). Used as Input Parameter, you can input any Data Type for that parameter. Used as Output Parameter, you can overlay it with an Expected Type for further modeling steps. But keep in mind: Model your parameters as special as possible and as general as necessary to make clear, what a Service does and how it is used. Only use the Any Type where reasonable.
