Michael Beckerle updated DAFFODIL-451:
--------------------------------------
Issue Type: Improvement (was: New Feature)
> Implement a Check for the Distinctness of Delimiters
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DAFFODIL-451
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-451
> Project: Daffodil
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Middle "End", Usability
> Reporter: Jessie Chab
> Priority: Minor
> Time Spent: 49m
>
> Taylor: Do you know if the padChar is allowed to be the same as an escapeChar?
> Mike: bad idea. I think we added an errata just a week or so ago that says it
> is an SDE if any of the things are not distinct. E.g., the terminator cannot
> be the same as the pad character either, nor any other delimiter, nor the
> textStandardGroupingSeparator nor ....\
> Mike: delimiters can be shared prefixes of each other, and an enclosing group
> could have the same delimiters as something it encloses (e.g., enclosing
> gorup has comma separator, enclosed inner group does also) We do need an
> explicit check for the distinctness of these things. So jessie's test should
> throw an SDE.
> So... that test should result in an SDE. We'll need to create a ticket/bug to
> add that.
> Conversation above first referenced in DFDL-259 (Implement Trim/Pad/Fill)
