Returning an error sounds fine to me.

Subject: RE: RFC for Extended MAMA Date Time

 

Good question… the approach we had planned on taking was to allow accessors to be called and return an error if an extended value was requested via a function which doesn’t support extended values.

 

An argument could certainly be made to implement what you’re talking about and in terms of code, it would be the easiest thing in the world to add, but I think (after some deliberation) we should avoid it because:

 

1.       It makes the application aware of the concept of “Extended” values, which I expect the application developer won’t want to have to consider independently

2.       Whether it’s extended or not is usually irrelevant until you try to read or write to it using certain accessors in which case we have a mechanism already in there in returning an error code (which applications should already be checking)

3.       It would mean introducing a method which would immediately get deprecated in MAMA 7 (as we will revisit the interface at that point to make all interfaces support extended data types)

 

I also have one eye on trying to steer anyone who is depending on extended data types to actually move exclusively towards methods which support extended values and use POSIX mechanisms rather than have conditional statements where they need to maintain two blocks of code – one for extended and one for the old non-extended.

 

Cheers,

Frank

One question, (and I haven’t fully thought this through), is there any need to be able to determine at runtime, given a mamaDateTime object, whether it contains an extended value?

Thanks,

Hi Folks,

 

I have just opened up a new RFC to cover the upcoming Extended MAMA Date Time functionality. You can find it listed here:

 

https://openmama.github.io/openmama_rfc_open.html

 

Also note that in the interest of making this process completely transparent, I have also created a process document outlining how we review RFCs and guidelines on how to create them going forward:

 

https://openmama.github.io/openmama_rfc_process.html

 

Pay particular attention to the most constructive ways to provide feedback: https://openmama.github.io/openmama_rfc_process.html#how-to-provide-rfc-feedback

 

As per our process, we will leave this RFC open for a period of 2 weeks, after which point if there are no major concerns, the RFC design will be considered approved and work can begin.

 

Cheers,

Frank
