Change draft for #234: originalUriBaseIds contains fileLocation objects

["Larry Golding (Myriad Consulting Inc)" <v-lgold@microsoft.com>]

I pushed a change draft for Issue #234: “Consider making originalUriBaseIds a dictionary of file location objects”:

 

Documents/ChangeDrafts/Active/sarif-v2.0-issue-234-originalUriBaseIds-are-fileLocations.docx

 

The idea is to be able to specify a hierarchy of URI base ids under a common root. With the current design, you have to say this:

 

{

  "originalUriBaseIds": {

    "SOURCE_ROOT": "file:///C:/repos/MyProject/src/",

    "TEST_SOURCE_ROOT": "file:///C:/repos/MyProject/src/tests/",

    "BIN_ROOT": "file:///C:/repos/MyProject/bin"

  },

  ...

}

 

With the proposed design, you can say this:

 

{

  "originalUriBaseIds": {

    "PROJECT_ROOT": {

      "uri": "file:///C:/repos/MyProject/"

    },

    "SOURCE_ROOT": {

      "uri": "src/"

      "uriBaseId": "PROJECT_ROOT"

    },

    "TEST_SOURCE_ROOT": {

      "uri": " tests/",

      "uriBaseId": "SOURCE_ROOT"

    },

    "BIN_ROOT": {

      "uri": "bin/",

      "uriBaseId": "PROJECT_ROOT"

    }

  },

  ...

}

 

Now only one of the original uriBaseIds is non-deterministic, and a consumer that “rebases” URIs from one machine to another need only prompt the user for one location.

 

We will move its adoption at TC #24 on Wednesday, September 26^th.

 

Thanks,
