DDSXTY12 — Shareable members underspecified

Open Closed All
  • Key: DDSXTY12-21
  • Legacy Issue Number: 18295
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: ZettaScale Technology ( Mr. Erik Hendriks)
  • Summary:

    There are some questions regarding shared members that should clearly be addressed in this section:

    • Are shareable members always implemented as pointers in the way optional members are?
    • If so, can a shareable member be NULL?
    • If so, then is a shareable member not by definition also an optional member?
    • What will happen when I pass object graphs, even when the last sentence warns against this? (e.g. marshaling into 1 big blob anyway, passing an error, etc.)
    • May a shareable member be, or contain a key?
