Issues Descriptions

Handling Unsupported Numeric Values like Infinity and NaN

  • Key: DDSJSON-1
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Real-Time Innovations ( Mr. Fernando Garcia-Aranda)
  • Summary:

    As stated in ECMA-404, JSON does not provide native representation for values like "Infinity", "-Infinity", and "NaN":

    Numeric values that cannot be represented as sequences of digits (such as Infinity and NaN) are not permitted.

    However, these are values that need to be handled by a JSON encoder and decoder. Therefore, we should provide a standard representation for such values so that all implementations of DDS-JSON can follow the same approach.

  • Disposition: Resolved — DDS-JSON 1.0
  • Disposition Summary:

    Define mapping of numeric values that cannot be represented as digit sequences

    This resolution provides a mapping for numeric values (such as "Infinity", "-Infinity", and "Nan") that cannot be represented as digit sequences and are therefore invalid JSON according to [ECMA-404].
