This point has been discussed within the STF several times, coming to the conclusion, that omit is not a value (i.e. var integer int := omit //causes error) but the text of the standard has not been changed. This question has also been raised by TF160, in relation to valueof().<br />
It is proposed to add the following example to clause 15.10:<br />
function f (template(omit) integer pl_int) {<br />
&#160;&#160;var integer int := valueof(pl_int)<br />
&#160;&#160;...<br />
}<br />
...<br />
function f2 () {<br />
&#160;&#160;f(5); //correct<br />
&#160;&#160;f(omit);// will cause an error within f(), as omit is not a value, thus cannot be returned by valueof </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"></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/doc.gif" alt="doc" />&#160;CR4934_Valueof_omit.doc (131,584) <span class="italic">06-07-2009 11:57</span><br />http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/file_download.php?file_id=2167&amp;type=bug<br /><img src="http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/images/fileicons/doc.gif" alt="doc" />&#160;CR4934_Valueof_omit v2.doc (261,632) <span class="italic">06-07-2009 13:34</span><br />http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/file_download.php?file_id=2169&amp;type=bug<br /><img src="http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/images/fileicons/doc.gif" alt="doc" />&#160;CR4934_Valueof_omit v3.doc (270,848) <span class="italic">07-07-2009 09:44</span><br />http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/file_download.php?file_id=2175&amp;type=bug<br /><img src="http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/images/fileicons/doc.gif" alt="doc" />&#160;CR4934_Valueof_omit_v4.doc (271,360) <span class="italic">08-07-2009 15:26</span><br />http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/file_download.php?file_id=2192&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">03-03-2009 11:13</td><td class="print"><a href="http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/view_user_page.php?id=127">Gyorgy Rethy</a></td><td class="print">New Issue</td><td class="print"></td></tr><tr class="print"><td class="print">03-03-2009 11:13</td><td class="print"><a href="http://oldforge.etsi.org/mantis/view_user_page.php?id=127">Gyorgy Rethy</a></td><td class="print">Status</td><td class="print">new =&gt;
