Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Updated: (ODATA-96) Need to define semantics, serialization format, etc. for Enums
[ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/ODATA-96?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ] Ralf Handl updated ODATA-96: ---------------------------- Fix Version/s: WD01 > Need to define semantics, serialization format, etc. for Enums > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ODATA-96 > URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/ODATA-96 > Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC > Issue Type: Bug > Components: OData ABNF Construction Rules v1.0, OData ATOM Format v1.0, OData JSON Format v1.0, OData Protocol v1.0 > Affects Versions: WD01 > Reporter: Michael Pizzo > Assignee: Michael Pizzo > Fix For: WD01 > > > Enums are allowed in an entity model, but their semantics are not defined. We need to define semantics and serialization for each format. For example: > -Are they serialized as their underlying type or the enumeration value name (I would propose the later). > -How are enumeration values specified in expressions (I propose as name rather than underlying value) > -How are flags expressed for enumeration values? (I propose defining the use of the pipe (|) character for this purpose in the ABNF) > -Can multiple enumeration values have the same underlying value (i.e., as aliases) (I propose yes). > -Can the underlying type be a non-integral type (I don't see the need if the URL syntax and serialization formats uses the enumeration value name) > We need a single proposal that defines all the additional text required to fully support enumerations. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
