Mike Beckerle commented on DAFFODIL-2784:
-----------------------------------------
This string to string mapping using repType may have been intended to work at
one time, but I think it should not be supported. Only integer to string is
really needed. So if the repType is not an integer type it should SDE.
> String repType to String enumeration doesn't work

> Project: Daffodil
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Back End
> Affects Versions: 3.4.0
> Reporter: Olabusayo Kilo
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 3.5.0

> While this might be unsupported, the bigger issue is it doesn't report an
> error, so you know it doesn't work. The repType is just inserted into the
> data and the enumeration mapping is ignored.
> This is further illustrated when you have a checkConstraints on either the
> enum simpleType or the element that uses it. The checkcontraint looks for the
> enum value but since the mapping failed, the checkConstraint fails as well
