KERML — Composite feature values can have more than one owner

  • Key: KERML-208
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: NIST ( Mr. Conrad Bock)
  • Summary:

    7.3.4.1 (Features Overview) says

    Values of a composite feature, on each instance of the feature's domain, cannot exist after the featuring instance ceases to exist.

    and 8.3.3.3.3 (Feature) says

    isComposite : Boolean
    Whether the Feature is a composite feature of its featuringType. If so, the values of the Feature cannot exist after its featuring instance no longer does.

    but the spec doesn't seem to say anywhere that the values cannot be values of any composite features on any other instance of the feature's domain ("single owner", "tree" property of composition), as typically expected.

    The FTF considers this issue to have merit, but, due to lack of time, is deferring it to a future FTF or RTF.
