IDL43 — Missing bullet "Integers restricted to holding 8 bits of information"

  • Key: IDL43-9
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Airbus Group ( Mr. Oliver M. Kellogg)
  • Summary:

    7.4.13.4 "Explanations and Semantics" gives a synoptic list of the complements,

    Those complements are:

    • Additions to structure definition in order to support single inheritance and void content (no members).
    • Ability to discriminate a union with other types (wide char and octet).
    • An additional template type (maps).
    • Additional constructed types (bitsets and bitmasks).

    The complement "Integers restricted to holding 8 bits of information" (7.4.13.4.4) should be added there.
