RE: [sv-ac] Mantis 1559: To which types can $countones (and other functions like $onehot) be applied?

I think the issue can be handled under a single Mantis.

If this part of 2476 is explicitly transferred to 1559 and/or 3036, then 2476 can be approved as is.

Shalom

Erik,

Yes, this is another Mantis that talks about the same issue. So, we have at least 3 Mantis items which seem to overlap - 3036, 2476, 1559. Out of these, Dmitry has already put a first cut proposal for 3036 (and possibly working on the discussed solution in the last meeting). We need to synchronize... let's discuss this in out next meeting.

Warm regards,
Tapan

Tapan-I think Shalom's comment on 2476 means that we should include this issue there, and probably close 1559 as a duplicate. Dmitry, can we discuss at the next meeting?

(BTW-my understanding from reading the recent minutes is that there is general agreement that bit-stream types is the right solution for the argument question. Somebody tell me if you disagree, otherwise I will incorporate this into a new draft of 2476.)

Hi Team,

Should it be bit-stream data type, as suggested by Dave Rich in a note?

Annex P / Page 1239 defines:
------------------
bit-stream data type: Any data type whose values can be represented as a serial stream of bits. To qualify
as a bit-stream data type, each and every bit of the values shall be individually addressable. In other words, a
bit-stream data type can be any data type except for a handle, chandle, real, shortreal, or event.
--------------------
Which seems to include many data-types that we need to consider e.g. string, dynamic arrays etc. What would be importance and usefulness of such types?

Also, there is another related question (In a note by Brad Pierce): Can the usage of streaming operator be allowed?

Warm regards,
Tapan
