For instance, using ASN.1 syntax:

Int32Sequence ::= SEQUENCE OF INTEGER

or

MyComposedType ::= SEQUENCE {
                                                          status INTEGER,
                                                          address IpAddress,
                                                          name   
DisplayString
                                                       }
