XTCE13 — Add variable to containers

Open Closed All
  • Key: XTCE13-6
  • Legacy Issue Number: 19382
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: NASA ( Mr. James Kevin Rice)
  • Summary:

    Variables are local values created from bit/sub-bits specified in the entry list of container. They are similar to parameters but exist only within the scope of the container they are defined – they are of type integer. Reported by JPL.

  • Disposition Summary:

    Variables feature in containers scopes to a 2.0 proposal

    The request for a defining variables in the container EntryList element is a significant change to the XTCE data model. This type of change cannot be done by a minor revision task force. This would need to be something that is handled by a potential 2.0 RFP.
