             Summary: Avoid homonym "target path"
                 Key: ODATA-1629
                 URL: https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-1629
             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: CSDL JSON , CSDL XML
            Reporter: Ralf Handl
             Fix For: V4.01_ERRATA01


The CSDL specs use "target path" with two rather different meanings:
 # In [navigation property binding target|https://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/odata-csdl-xml/v4.01/odata-csdl-xml-v4.01.html#sec_BindingTarget]Âand in [action import / function import entity set|https://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/odata-csdl-xml/v4.01/odata-csdl-xml-v4.01.html#sec_ActionImport]Âit identifies the entity set of related or returned entities.
 # In [annotation target|https://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/odata-csdl-xml/v4.01/odata-csdl-xml-v4.01.html#sec_Target]Âit identifies the annotated model element.

The syntax of the first kind of target path is defined in section [15.4 Target Path.|https://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/odata-csdl-xml/v4.01/odata-csdl-xml-v4.01.html#sec_TargetPath]

The syntax of the second kind of target path is defined in section [14.2.2 Target|https://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/odata-csdl-xml/v4.01/odata-csdl-xml-v4.01.html#sec_Target], and this section is the only place where "target path" is used for the second meaning, and only once.Â
