Olabusayo Kilo updated DAFFODIL-3080:
-------------------------------------
Priority: Minor (was: Major)
> Add choiceLengthKind='endOfParent'
> ----------------------------------
>
> Key: DAFFODIL-3080
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-3080
> Project: Daffodil
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Back End, DFDL Language
> Affects Versions: 4.2.0
> Reporter: Olabusayo Kilo
> Priority: Minor
>
> The DFDL spec (12.3.6) explicitly mentions that an EndOfParent element
> can be terminated by a choice with choiceLengthKind='explicit', with no
> reference
> to implicit length choices. Later on in 12.3.6, it specified what the parent
> Effective
> Length Units would be for an explicit length choice, again with no reference
> to
> implicit length choices. The only way to get an EndOfParent element within an
> implicit length choice would be to have it actually be terminated by the
> choice's
> parent, similar to how we treat elements within an element that is also
> EndOfParent.
> Alternatively we can also add a choiceLengthKind="EndOfParent" that looks to
> the parent's parent for the effective length unit of the parent.
