Number 199
Category errata
Synopsis A.8.7 et al: bnf simplifications
State closed
Class mistaken
Arrival-DateNov 19 2002
Originator Shalom.Bresticker@motorola.com
Release 2001b
Environment
Description
More BNF simplifications, although maybe all of these should just be listed as
enhancements.

In A.8.7 et al, the following

decimal_base ::= '[s|S]d | '[s|S]D
binary_base ::= '[s|S]b | '[s|S]B
octal_base ::= '[s|S]o | '[s|S]O
hex_base ::= '[s|S]h | '[s|S]H

can be simplified to

decimal_base ::= '[s|S][d|D]
binary_base ::= '[s|S][b|B]
octal_base ::= '[s|S][o|O]
hex_base ::= '[s|S][h|H]

But does that make the base specifier optional, unlike the original?
The signedness indicator is optional.
