Steve Lawrence commented on DAFFODIL-2170: ------------------------------------------ When I first read this bug i imagined the experimental flag would be controlled via a tunable. And then I realized maybe we don't really have a good formalization of when we should use properties vs tunables, and so I'm not sure which is correct. Do you have thoughts on when something should be controlled via a tunable vs a property? > hexBinary with lengthUnits 'bits' needs experimental property to > enable/disable. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DAFFODIL-2170 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-2170 > Project: Daffodil > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Front End > Affects Versions: 2.4.0 > Reporter: Michael Beckerle > Priority: Major > Fix For: 2.4.0 > > > The DFDL Workgroup has concluded that this feature is on the list for DFDL > v2.0. (Few things that don't have multiple implementations are going to be > added to DFDL v1.0 any more.) > That means this has to become an experimental feature which means it has to > have a property for enabling/disabling it. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
