GEMS12 — Defining a zero length hex_value is ambiguous

Open Closed All
  • Key: GEMS12-7
  • Legacy Issue Number: 15493
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Amergint Technologies ( Rob Andzik)
  • Summary:

    There is no clear example of how to define a zero length hex_value in GEMS-ASCII. Possibilities include name:hex_value=/0 or name:hex_value=0/0
    Proposed Resolution: name:hex_value=0/0 to make parsing simpler.

  • Disposition: Resolved — GEMS 1.2
  • Disposition Summary:

    Standardize on the following format:

    name:hex_value=0/0

    This makes parsing the message easier as all valid hex_value parameters will contain content on either side of the ‘/’.
