Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Updated: (OFFICE-2249) COUNTBLANK - requiredto support references as parameters?



     [ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2249?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Eike Rathke updated OFFICE-2249:
--------------------------------

    Proposal: 
Remove Constraints:
Implementations shall support references as a parameter, though other types may be supported

Add to Semantics::
Evaluators shall support one reference as a parameter and may support a ReferenceList as a parameter.


In OpenDocument-formula-20091222.odt Constraints reads:
Implementations shall support references as a parameter, though other types may be supported

This needs clarification. What probably was meant is that at least one reference shall be supported, but a ReferenceList may be supported. Other types than Reference or ReferenceList don't make much sense. In fact, existing implementations return an error for other types.

> Constraints on COUNTBLANK reports: "Implementations are only REQUIRED to support references as a parameter, though other types may be supported."
> Seems like an odd place for such an announcement, form (shall), etc. 
> ReferenceList is may be a value for VARPA, VARA, STDEVPA, STDEVA, MINA, MAXA, AVERAGEA, SUMIF, INDEX, ISREF, COUNTIF, COUNTA, AREAS (to support AREAS at all it looks like ReferenceList has to be supported), infix concatenation operator, Conversion to NumberSequenceList.
> The reference under COUNTBLANK maybe a local constraint but it looks like ReferenceList needs to be defined and the meaning of "may be" under the various functions clarified, plus the usual conformance issues.
