DDSXTY13 — Type compatibility rules for structs with keys

  • Key: DDSXTY13-64
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Real-Time Innovations ( Dr. Gerardo Pardo-Castellote, Ph.D.)
  • Summary:

    The compatibility for structure in section 7.2.4.4.8 'Aggregated Types' would make two structures that have a key member of type string compatible even if the keys had different maximum lengths.

    This is problematic. It would result in potentially aliasing different objects and also in different decisions on how the KeyHash is computed.
