Summary:
Several issues have noted that the XTCE 1.0 and 1.1 annotations have been lacking. Many of the updates were performed in conjunction with other issues that were more topic oriented to a particular area. In this, many elements/attributes/types did not require attention and as a result, did not get an opportunity to get annotation updates. In addition, some areas that were touched were done prior to reconciling the annotation updates.
-
Reported: XTCE 1.1 — Tue, 30 Jan 2018 22:34 GMT
-
Disposition: Resolved — XTCE 1.2
-
Disposition Summary:
Propose another set of annotation updates (part 2.1)
This resolution includes the second set of annotation updates that covers most of the elements/attributes in the next few levels of depth in the XML. It is not proposed as a comprehensive and complete set, but appears to be ready for use/evaluation/voting.
The list below is the typical method of showing the before and after of the XSD by type definition in the XSD. Each type is separated by a textual divider to make it easier to review.

If no referenceLocation value is given, the entry is assumed to begin at the first bit position after the previous entry. Each container starts at bit 0, thus "containerStart" is an offset from 0. Negative container start bits are before the container and are implementation dependent – these should be flagged as likely errors. "containerEnd" is given as a positive offset from the end of the container, thus a container end of 0 is exactly at the end of the container. Negative container end addresses are after the container and are implementation dependent – these should be flagged as likely errors. Positive "previouEntry" values are offsets from the previous entry – zero (0) is the default which means it follows contiguously from the last occupied bit of the previous entry. A value of one means it is offset 1-bit from the previous entry, and a value of negative 1 (-1) means it overlaps the previous entry by one bit, and so forth.
