Is there a difference between these types:
INTEGER (1..10) (MIN < .. 8)
and
INTEGER (1..10) (MIN .. 8)
There are not equivalent. In both cases, MIN is the minimum value from the
previous set, that is, 1, but 1<..8 means any integer starting from just
after 1 through 8. In other words, 1<..8 is the same as 2..8.
Would 1 be a compatible value for both of these types, or just the
second type?
1 is only valid for the second case.
In other words, does the open-ness of an endpoint matter when
considering MIN and MAX? I'd guess "yes" from X.680, but maybe someone
knows differently.
It depends upon the value MIN or MAX is taking. Something like
INTEGER (MIN .. 8)
means the same thing as
INTEGER (MIN <.. 8)
since MIN is minus-infinity and one higher than minus-infinity is still
minus-infinity. On the other hand, for
INTEGER (1..10) (MIN..8)
MIN would be a 1 and so
INTEGER (1..10) (MIN<..8)
would range from just after 1 through 8 or 2..8.
