I can tell we're entering a period of endless misery here. :-)
Yes, Austen, please change XmlData to use "runTime" as the attribute. As of our meeting
last week, that is the New Official Scrabble Dictionary Approved spelling of runTime.
To hopefully help deal with this problem, I've just committed a new SensorDataPropertyMap
method called "getRunTime()". This method tries getting the value associated with the
key "runTime", and if there is none, tries "runtime" as well. Analyses that want the
runTime property can use this method to avoid having to deal with this issue.
Note that since properties are by definition "optional", analysis code should not be
written to bomb out if the optional property is not present. Just discard data that does
not contain it.
Cheers,
Philip
