DDSXTY12 — Enumerations should be represented as a Byte if the bit bound is small enough

Open Closed All
  • Key: DDSXTY12-143
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Real-Time Innovations ( Dr. Gerardo Pardo-Castellote, Ph.D.)
  • Summary:

    Currently enumerations can only be represented using Int16 or Int32. But we see no reason why they couldn't be represented with a Byte if the bit bound is 8 or less.

    Allow Enumerations to be represented by a Byte if the Bit Bound is 8 or less

    Allow Enumerations to be represented by a Byte if the bit bound is 8 or less. Currently, if the bit bound is 1-16 the representation is Int16.
