DDS — DDS ISSUE# 24] Clarification of status flag

Ref-64 Association_of_status_and_statuschangedflag

Why does every status have an associated object "StatusChangedFlag"
instead of a boolean attribute "changed"?

Figure 2-14 (2.1.4.2) is at least misleading and should be clarified
regarding this point. It suggests a 1 to n relation with a
"StatusChangedFlag" class.

Even though the diagram was only meant as conceptual explanation, not
for providing an implementation architecture it would be desirable to
improve specification in this respect.

**PROPOSAL**

Add text to 2.1.4.2 to explain that this figure is conceptual and
simply represents that the Entity knows which specific statuses have
changed, it does not imply a particular implementation in terms of
Boolean flags.
