Doug Domeny commented on CMIS-279:
----------------------------------

@Florent, you are correct, xs:integer != xs:int. My mistake. That would be why .NET correctly generates a String type property for xs:integer instead of Int32.

The definition of length makes sense. It's what I initially assumed. I've been concentrating on the AtomPub binding, which, as I recently found out, doesn't use cmsContentStreamType. However, most of the content I manage is XHTML (character text), which led me to ponder the difference in length between UTF-16 vs. UTF-8 and Unicode vs. ASCII.

The following code snippet works. Each character is two bytes. That is, this.stream.LongLength == content.Length * 2.

String content = "some text";
System.Text.UnicodeEncoding encoder = new System.Text.UnicodeEncoding();
this.stream = encoder.GetBytes(content);
this.length = this.stream.LongLength.ToString();

This issue can be closed.

> The cmisContentStreamType 'length' is defined as xs:integer. Although rare today, it is possible for a content stream to be larger than 2GB.
