Subject: Please avoid using valueType as a field name in JOSIF Models (PM Model)

Marc, Yuval,

I have found a problem in the PM dependency model. As you know the Java API we are using for the RI / CTK is based upon the OSS/J design patterns. This means that every Java value type we generate has a reserved field VALUE_TYPE and an operator getValueType().

As a result it is important that 'valueType' is not used as a name for an attribute of an Entity, DataType or Facade in the model. This has not been a problem to date but I have found an issue in the PM Dependencies model;

org.tmforum.tip.cbe.perf.spec.PerformanceIndicatorSpecification
has the field valueType;

// A kind of value that the PerformanceIndicator can take on, such as numeric, text, and so forth.
org.tmforum.tip.cbe.perf.IndicatorType valueType

Could we please change the name of the field in the model from valueType to indicatorType

Thanks

Craig
