Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] (CAMP-174) requirement for URL-encoding of parameter values is misplaced and/or confusing
Jacques Durand created CAMP-174: ------------------------------------ Summary: requirement for URL-encoding of parameter values is misplaced and/or confusing Key: CAMP-174 URL: https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/CAMP-174 Project: OASIS Cloud Application Management for Platforms (CAMP) TC Issue Type: Bug Components: SPEC PR2 Reporter: Jacques Durand Priority: Minor The normative req PR-11: "] The Consumer SHALL URL encode the request parameter values. [PR-11]" seems to apply only to select_attr parameter, as currently placed in the narrative. Yet this parameter does not need extra care for its values because attribute names are restricted enough so that PR-11 appears to be pointless here. First a more explicit wording would remove possible misinterpretations: when PR-11 says "URL encode", it is referring to the values of the request parameters (meaning use of URL conventions for representing special characters in parameter values, like space, quotes); it doesn't mean that they values will *be* URLs. Then, should there be other query parameters covered by section 6.5 (in a future version?) PR-11 would make sense, but then should be placed at the beginning of 6.5, not just when describing select_attr . And there should be a Section 6.5.1 "Retrieving a Subset of a Resource's Attributes" (or some such) that introduces select_attr. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2.2#6258)
