DDSXTY14 — The list of valid KEY types does not include String types

Open Closed All
  • Key: DDSXTY14-45
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Twin Oaks Computing, Inc. ( Mr. Clark Tucker)
  • Summary:

    The text reads:

    "A type's key can only include members of the following types: primitive, aggregation,
    enumeration, bitmask, array, and sequence."

    It should include 'string' and 'wstring'.

    Merge with DDSXTY14-41

    DDSXTY14-45 is refactoring section 7.2.2.4.4.4.8 "Key Members" of the specification.This section is where the legal types for key members are listed. So handling this issue a the same time would be the simplest approach.
