Subject: Re: [ubl-ndrsc] Re: [ubl-lcsc] Re: [ubl-ndrsc] UBL: question on CCTlanguage component
Table 8-2 shows both, one right after the other, both type string. I
thinkone problem with 8-2 is that it seems to have been alphabetized, as
opposed to being ordered by the structures it's defining!
Ah, to me, though, looking at this table (8-2), following your logic, I
would expect there then to be language.content, and then maybe
language.code. identifier, as there is for amount.content and
amount.currency.identifier. However, my logic expects more along the
lines of (eg) code.name.text and code.name.language, or datetime.content
and datetime.language. So one of the first questions for me is 'What
types need to have language specified' and then, what components need to
have a language specified, and then make lanagues a supp component of
that type. All the other types are grouped, as if they could be in a
structure, but language is just hanging out there on it's own. I'll
have to look at this a bit more, but I don't see why language should be
separated out as you have it in this example - I'd think it would have
to be x.language...., or y.language. ..., not language.x.... because
the language has to apply to some aspect of some type, either the name
of the a components (text) or a format (date). But perhaps I'm looking
at things the wrong way around...
