-----------------------------------------
Summary: Extend C code generator to support hexBinary elements
Key: DAFFODIL-2566
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-2566
Project: Daffodil
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Back End C-Generator
Affects Versions: 3.1.0
Reporter: John Interrante
Assignee: John Interrante
Fix For: 3.2.0
Allow Daffodil to generate C code from DFDL schemas using the type
"hexBinary" for fixed length and prefixed length opaque byte arrays.
The "hex" simply means that the binary 8-bit bytes are represented by
hexadecimal characters in the XML infoset and the C code knows how to
convert between these binary and text representations when parsing
binary bytes or unparsing XML infosets. Add hexBinary elements to the
ex_nums test schema to exercise the new code.
