| Description |
A.9.4 "Identifier branches" defines simple_hierarchial_branch as, for example, simple_identifier [ [ unsigned_number ] ] In all 4 places in A.9.4 where "[ [ unsigned_number ] ]" appears, the inner brackets around "unisgned_number" should be bold. |
| Fix |
Sent to IEEE in October 2001: Passed 10/7/02: A.9.4 "Identifier branches" defines simple_hierarchial_branch as, for example, simple_identifier [ [ unsigned_number ] ] In all 4 places in A.9.4 where "[ [ unsigned_number ] ]" appears, the inner brackets around "unisgned_number" should be bold. Section A.9.4 and Syntax 12-7 (Section 12.4): REPLACE (4 places): simple_identifier [ [ unsigned_number ] ] WITH: simple_identifier [ [ unsigned_number ] ] |

Also, in syntax box 12-7, an attempt to superscript certain subrules with a description in a caption below the box should be cleaned up and made consistent with the rules as the appear in Annex A, A.9.4. At the end of Annex A (after A.9.5), there are 6 notes, of which Notes 2 thru 6 are used to annoted rules in sections A.9.3, A.9.4, and A.9.5. Some of these annoted rules also appear in syntax box 12-7, though instead of being superscripted with numbers (as in Annex A), they are superscripted with characters (* and /), though not all descriptions have a visable superscript character. The caption under Syntax box 12-7 contains descriptions for * and /, but also contains the descriptions: "The period (.) in simple_hierarchical_identifier..." "A simple_identifier and arrayed_reference..." which have no superscripted character, so it is not clear what the text is referring to. The caption text also contains a variety of font sizes.

Yes, this appears to be IEEE's fault. It occurs not just here. All the syntax boxes need to be checked for similar problems, and probably the tables and figures also. > The caption under Syntax box 12-7 contains descriptions > for * and /, but also contains the descriptions: > > "The period (.) in simple_hierarchical_identifier..." > "A simple_identifier and arrayed_reference..." > > which have no superscripted character, so it is not clear > what the text is referring to. Same. > The caption text also contains a variety of font sizes. That one looks like our fault.

Clarification: The error is in both "simple_identifier [ [ unsigned_number ] ]" in simple_hierarchical_branch and also in "escaped_identifier [ [ unsigned_number ] ]" in escaped_hierarchical_branch, in both A.9.4 and in Syntax 12-7. All are corrected in 2001b. I added change bars in 2001c. |
