             Summary: Define meaning of MaxLength for String, Binary, and Stream
                 Key: ODATA-858
                 URL: https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-858
             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: OData CSDL, OData JSON CSDL
    Affects Versions: V4.0_ERRATA02
            Reporter: Ralf Handl
             Fix For: V4.0_ERRATA03


For String the most natural definition would be character length.

For Binary this is less clear: is it the number of octets, or the maximum length of the base64url-encoded string?

For Stream it would seem to be number of octets, i.e. content-length, but with ODATA-482 we might also see base64url-encoded strings in the payload.
