# Supported Mosel Types

Not all Mosel types are supported.
The table below describes which Mosel types are supported and how they map to Xpress Insight types.
Note: Entities declared locally within a procedure or function are not visible to Xpress Insight.

Mosel type | Insight entity type
boolean | BOOLEAN
integer | INTEGER
real | REAL
string | STRING
linctr | CONSTRAINT
mpvar | DECISION_VARIABLE
set of boolean, integer, real, string | SET
array of boolean, integer, real, string, mpvar, linctr | ARRAY
array (set of boolean, integer, string) | ARRAY
array (set of real) | Unsupported
dynamic or hashmap array) | ARRAY
record | Unsupported
constants | Various
User-defined types (including nested types) | Unsupported
parameter | ARRAY (parameters)
Types defined in modules | Unsupported
`mmproblem` type | Unsupported
Anonymous constraints | Unsupported

Xpress Insight does not support nested types. Where a type is otherwise unsupported (such as `nlctr`), it can still be used in a model; unsupported types are ignored by Xpress Insight and are not captured as input or results data.

Note: Custom types defined by a module can be supported by Insight if the implementation of the type meets some pre-requisites. For more, see Marshalling Module Types.
Covered Topics

- Marshaling Module Types
  A custom type defined by a Mosel module, such as text, date, time, and datetime, can be included in the Insight scenario schema as an entity of type string if it can be marshaled to and from the Mosel string type.
