<td colspan="5" class="print">There are several functions to check
presence of an object but there is no way to check whether an object
omit: e.g. isomitted.<br />
NOTE: "isomitted(inpar)" would not be the same as "not ispresent(inpar)"
as in case of "var template MyType v_MyType := *" both functions would
result in false.</td>

The "isomitted" functionality is helpful e.g. for SIP when you want to
construct a message which may or may not have a message body (i.e.
parameter is either omit or a template); in case of the message body
being present the message needs to have a Content-Type.</td>

- the &lt;something&gt;2char functions are converting &lt;something&gt;
to its character equivalents, e.g. int2char the character codepoint in
ISO646 to the character (int2char(65) == "A"); this function will not
convert, just print out the content;<br />
- the &lt;something&gt;2str functions do simply print out the content
into a charstring. Therefore I propose that the name of the predef.
function should be ttcn2str.<br />
   -&gt; changed in CR6697_v2.docx<br />
- I haven't found a description on how to present matching symbols in
textual form; in tliLog for example the whole "data" to be logged is a
string, i.e. the internal format seems to be tool specific; to allow
using simple strings instead of patterns, when checking the content, we
should specify the exact format, e.g. in "-1 ifpresent" there shall be
exactly 1 space between "-1" and "ifpresent" (do you agree?);<br />
        -&gt; not defined in CR6697_v2.docx, just the ifpresent example
has been added.<br />
- the function should accept uninitialized, partly and completely
initialized input (at different places it was defined differently)<br />

<td class="print">Well, as you are probably aware, this allows fields
that are omit to be compared with values (yields false) or with other
fields that are omit (yields true). So, since template(omit)
variables/parameters are only stand-ins for field references (either
they are assigned a field reference or are used to be assigned to a
field reference at some point), it stands to reason that comparing them
with omit makes as much sense as comparing a field reference with omit
(or with another field reference that is omitted).<br />
<br />
Basically, it makes no sense whatsoever to treat a field reference that
COULD be omit any differently than omit or a template with
omit-restriction.</td>

<td class="print">Jacob, I understand your point, but this is a problem
of semantics. Although template(omit) and template(value) are restricted
in such a way that their content is a value (or omit), they are still
not values in the sense of definition of value specified in the section
3.1.<br />
<br />
Then there's a problem of the omit symbol itself. According to the
definition of its use specified in the section 5, omit is a symbol used
for omission of fields. It is not a value and as such it doesn't fulfil
semantic requirements on operands of the equality operation.<br />
<br />
However, all I wrote is just my interpretation of the rules. Since it
seems that your interpretation is rather different, I think we need a CR
to handle this situation explicitly in the standard. Could you please
enter one?</td>

<td class="print">I think this issue should be discussed again. I admit
that Jacob's position comparing the proposed solution to a dirty hack is
a relevant one and well-written code should not use it.<br />
<br />
Maybe we should get back to the original proposal or specify a more
general function istemplatekind() with two parameters (template,
template kind) that would return true if the matching symbol is of
certain kind and false otherwise:<br />
<br />
var template integer vt_1 := ?, vt_2 := (0..2) ifpresent;<br />
var boolen v_res;<br />
...<br />
v_res := istemplatekind(vt_1, "AnyValue"); // true<br />
v_res := istemplatekind(vt_1, "AnyValueOrNone"); // false<br />
v_res := istemplatekind(vt_2, "complement"); // false<br />
v_res := istemplatekind(vt_2, "list"); // true<br />
v_res := istemplatekind(vt_2, "ifpresent"); // true<br />
<br />
Another option would be to allow using matching symbols and templates as
operands of the equality operations and define the rules for this kind
of comparison.<br />
<br />
Both proposed solutions can be actually implemented together with the
ttcn2char function which might be actually handy in some cases. I have
one comment to this function as well: It should not return charstring,
but universal charstring, since the converted template might contain
universal string fields. In case it doesn't, universal charstring
conversion to charstring is implicit, so the current functionality won't
change.</td>

If there are any changes in resolution of CR6736, the current proposal
has to be updated accordingly.<br />
<br />
I also change the return type and the name of the universal string
conversion function from ttcn2str to any2unichar. The "any" part stands
for the input parameter which is of "any type" and the second part
stands for "universal charstring". So far all functions converting
from/to universal charstring used unichar and it would be nice to follow
the same naming convension.<br />
