#N12 Additional variable types (including non-scalar)[e.g. #S2 Interoperability; identifier comes from “Version 1.1 Candidate Items” spreasheet on TC Documents page] SDD 1.1 General Direction Proposal XXX = [Proposal | Initial Discussion | General Direction Proposal]
Current Situation • Extend the set of variable types: • Available variable types in V1.0 shall be extended with more types, including non-scalar types (non such available in v1.0) • Currently following types are available • IntegerParameterType (extends BaseParameterType) • StringParameterType (extends BaseParameterType) • BooleanParameterType (extends BaseParameterType) • URIParameterType (extends BaseParameterType) • ResourcePropertyType • DerivedVariableType
Proposal • The idea is additionally existing types to introduce two new types • ComplexParameterType is a new type • ArrayParameterType is subtype BaseParameterType • Additionally a hierarchy of new elements called data-types is introduced
Scenario(s)/Use Case(s) • Let’s recall the variables definition: Variables provide a way to associate user inputs, resource property values, fixed strings and values derived from these with input arguments for artifacts and with constraints on resources. • It makes sense to define two more variable types • a record of elements of different base types – to structure parameters that belong logically together (user account for example) • an array of the same base type – to declare unknown number of common inputs (file locations for example) • With respect to the purpose of variables in SDD I was not able to define a use case where table-structure may be used therefore the proposal does not contain a table
