--- Comment #2 from Nick Burch <[email protected]> --- Two comments and one query: - Before defining the Enum, there'd need to be some time spent looking over the File Format Documentation to ensure that all the different options are actually defined, and none have been missed - As well as this, there would need to be a check done of all the test documents we have to ensure that no extra values in common use - How would we handle a file where the value written in it when reading wasn't one of the expected ones? (Could be slightly invalid, from a different program, reserved value in use etc - real world files are often messy!) It might be worth picking one of the smaller, more self contained cases from the list, and trying to work up a patch for just that. A patch will mean code to review and discuss (rather than just in the abstract), and would offer more of a chance to see the best ways to handle the comments+question above. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
