[OASIS Issue Tracker] Commented: (ODATA-231) Define how to specify enumeration values in annotations

[ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/ODATA-231?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=32337#action_32337 ] 

Ralf Handl commented on ODATA-231:
----------------------------------

Required a SimpleIdentifier for the expression value:

<Annotation Term="org.example.Color" EnumMember="Yellow" />

<Annotation Term="org.example.Color">
 <EnumMember>Yellow</EnumMember>
</Annotation>

An alternative would have been to allow (or even require) a Qualified name:

<Annotation Term="org.example.Color" EnumMember="org.example.ColorType.Yellow" />

<Annotation Term="org.example.Color">
 <EnumMember>org.example.ColorType.Yellow</EnumMember>
</Annotation>

But I assume that real cases are rare when the EnumType definition is known and the Term definition using that EnumType definition is not.
