<br />
Especially for those PatternElement constructs which contain more than one character, this leads to unresolvable problems (if the ambiguity is not removed somehow).<br />
<br />
I guess the intention was that PatternChar should be any character which is not one of the characters in the &quot;first set&quot; of the other alternatives in PatternElement. Thus, the following characters need to be excluded &quot;\&quot;, &quot;?&quot;, &quot;*&quot;, &quot;|&quot;, &quot;+&quot;, &quot;[&quot;, &quot;{&quot;, &quot;&quot;&quot; and &quot;#&quot;<br />
<br />
Consequently, I think that the example in B.1.5.2 <br />
<br />
template charstring RegExp4 := pattern &quot;{Reg&quot;; <br />
<br />
should be changed to<br />
<br />
template charstring RegExp4 := pattern &quot;\{Reg&quot;;<br />
<br />
Finally, it should be forbidden to use reference expressions in referenced variables/parameters/module parameters (i.e. all entities which are unknown at compile time). I.e. if a referenced charstring value contains a reference-like expression, it is treated as if it was just the sequence of the characters of the reference. Meaning: if I have a variable v which contains &quot;{a}&quot;, then referencing it via pattern &quot;{v}&quot; will match only the charstring &quot;{a}&quot; and not any referenced 'a'. If this is the intention of the standard anyway, then it needs to be clarified.<br />
<br />
Consequently, the stuff in EXAMPLE 3 (which is wrong in any case as it is missing at least one 'pattern') should be forbidden. But, maybe there are only some typos in Ref6, where Ref1 should be Ref4 and Ref2 should be Ref5.<br />
<br />
I guess what the example was really supposed to be was this:<br />
<br />
template charstring Ref0:= &quot;My String&quot;;<br />
template charstring Ref1:= &quot;{Re&quot;;<br />
template charstring Ref2:= &quot;f0}&quot;;<br />
template charstring Ref3:= pattern &quot;{Ref1}{Ref2}&quot;;<br />
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;//this matches &quot;{Ref0}&quot;<br />
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;//i.e. there is no further dereferencing<br />
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;//as Ref1 and Ref2 do not contain a reference<br />
<br />
template charstring Ref4:= pattern &quot;{Ref0}&quot;;<br />
template charstring Ref5:= &quot;&quot;;<br />
template charstring Ref6:= pattern &quot;{Ref4}{Ref5}&quot;;<br />
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;//this matches &quot;My String&quot; â€“ here Ref0 is dereferenced, because Ref4 contains <br />
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;//the reference expression {Ref0} with the reference Ref0<br />
template charstring RegExp7 := pattern &quot;{Reg&quot; &amp; &quot;Exp1}&quot;;<br />
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;//note the difference to Ref6: in this case the fragments of the<br />
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;//pattern are joined before any evaluation, i.e. this template will match the string &quot;ab&quot; </td></tr><tr class="print"><td class="print-category">Steps To Reproduce</td><td class="print" colspan="5"></td></tr><tr class="print"><td class="print-category">Additional Information</td><td class="print" colspan="5"></td></tr><tr class="print"><td class="print-category">Tags</td><td class="print" colspan="5">No tags attached.</td></tr><tr class="print"><td class="print-category">Relationships</td><td class="print" colspan="5"><table border="0" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1"><tr><td class="print"><span class="nowrap">parent of</span>&#160;</td><td class="print">0005835</td><td class="print">closed&#160;</td><td class="print"><span class="nowrap"><a href="http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/view_user_page.php?id=81">Ina Schieferdecker</a></span>&#160;</td><td class="print">BNF rule for PatternElement is ambiguous, Example is wrong&#160;</td></tr><tr><td class="print"><span class="nowrap">related to</span>&#160;</td><td class="print">0005797</td><td class="print">closed&#160;</td><td class="print"><span class="nowrap"><a href="http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/view_user_page.php?id=81">Ina Schieferdecker</a></span>&#160;</td><td class="print">BNF for CharStringMatch is inconsistent with description&#160;</td></tr><tr><td class="print"><span class="nowrap">related to</span>&#160;</td><td class="print">0005828</td><td class="print">closed&#160;</td><td class="print"><span class="nowrap"><a href="http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/view_user_page.php?id=81">Ina Schieferdecker</a></span>&#160;</td><td class="print">STF409 comment on [Part 1: TTCN-3 Core Language /Annex B.1.5.2 ]: syntactical ambiguity&#160;</td></tr><tr><td class="print"><span class="nowrap">related to</span>&#160;</td><td class="print">0006169</td><td class="print">closed&#160;</td><td class="print"><span class="nowrap"><a href="http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/view_user_page.php?id=81">Ina Schieferdecker</a></span>&#160;</td><td class="print">The pattern char grammar has been mixed up&#160;</td></tr></table></td></tr><tr class="print"><td class="print-category">Attached Files</td><td class="print" colspan="5"><img src="http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/images/fileicons/generic.gif" alt="?" />&#160;core.bnf (57,081) <span class="italic">30-06-2011 17:21</span><br />http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/file_download.php?file_id=2540&amp;type=bug</td></tr><tr><td class="print-spacer" colspan="6"><hr size="1" /></td></tr><tr><td class="form-title">Issue History</td></tr><tr class="print-category"><td class="row-category-history">Date Modified</td><td class="row-category-history">Username</td><td class="row-category-history">Field</td><td class="row-category-history">Change</td></tr><tr class="print"><td class="print">11-11-2010 13:46</td><td class="print"><a href="http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/view_user_page.php?id=508">Jacob Wieland - Spirent</a></td><td class="print">New Issue</td><td class="print"></td></tr><tr class="print"><td class="print">11-11-2010 13:46</td><td class="print"><a href="http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/view_user_page.php?id=508">Jacob Wieland - Spirent</a></td><td class="print">Clause Reference(s)</td><td class="print"> =&gt;
