Subject: Re: [ubl-lcsc] Meeting Minutes
I don't understand this item from the LCSC minutes:Containership: Issue is not solved, and we do not have rules for containership [Gunther Stuhec]. Naming and Design preferences - Suggested Item List containers be used if you have more than one item then you put it into the list. Position paper provided a resolution to that [Tim McGrath]. Stuhec will provide comments or concerns once re-reviewing the paper. Can someone please clarify what LCSC thinks the NDRSC "preference" is?From the NDRSC perspective I thought the big question was "to use 'extra' container elements, or not". I thought the consensus we arrived at was represented in the final two paragraphs of this message (by Eve): http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-ndrsc/200209/msg00028.html to wit:- The overhead of basic (syntactic) list containers seems not to be
worth the extra power you get in customization.
- We might find an occasional semantic ABIE that contains series of like
elements (plus possibly an unlike thing or two), but it should rely
on a regular analysis of functional dependencies. This discussion
has opened our eyes to this possibility, and suggests the various
0..n and 1..n properties should be briefly re-examined for missing
opportunities, but there's no need for wholesale changes.
My understanding is that NDRSC believes that there is not sufficient motivation for our dictating 'extra' container elements (in the XML binding). In other words the XML realization (done by The Perl Script) of the association from OrderHeader to LineItem is fine as it stands -- OrderHeader has an element with maxOccurs='unbounded' to represent the association. I think NDRSC was suggesting that the name of the element might ought to be something like "LineItemList" (if it ain't already) -- but other than that, I think the _structure_ is fine.Am I off base?-Bill-----Original Message-----
