If the numeric type is annotated by range:

    @range(min=1, max = 10) long f1;

or min

    @min(1) long f1;

or max

    @max(-1) long f1;

but does not specify a default, what is the default value since it cannot be 0.

Not sure where (not necessarily in the noted paragraph) should include a reference to an electronic mapping file as an example. Could also include test sample IDL and corresponding C++ output. This should probably be informational and could also be in an Annex. The key reason is to show the actual transformation as well as a test/verification of the mappings. Perhaps also include versions of tools/compiler used in which the transformations were validated. In addition unit tests could be referenced or included as informative content to the spec.

Prior to C++20, the following template cannot be instantiated:

template <typename T, const T thingy>
class MyTemplate {};

MyTemplate<double, 5.0> x;

Keys of maps can be any IDL type. How should the generated C++ code support key comparison of any type?
