RE: [sarif] Approving change for #208

Ok, David reminds me that we didn’t actually approve #208. I’ll make it a normal agenda item for TC #25. The whole change is below.

Subject: [sarif] Approving change for #208

 

At TC #24, we agreed to Issue #208, “Suggestion: require uriBaseId to be case-insensitive”, but I neglected to mention it in the motion to approve changes at the end.

 

I merged the changes we agreed to, but just to dot the Is and cross the Ts, I added an agenda item for TC #25 to ratify the change.

 

To remind you, the change was to add this paragraph to the section on
fileLocation.uriBaseId, and the only change the TC asked for was to replace
StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase with
CultureInfo.InvariantCulture:

 

 

The value of 
uriBaseId SHALL be interpreted in a case insensitive manner. If the platform on which the SARIF consumer executes offers a language-independent case insensitive string comparison facility (for example,
locale.ROOT in Java or
CultureInfo.InvariantCulture in .NET), the consumer
SHOULD use that facility to compare uriBaseId values. Otherwise (that is, if no language-independent case insensitive string comparison is available, or if the SARIF consumer chooses
 not to use it), the SARIF consumer SHALL use English language casing conventions to perform the comparison

 

Thanks,

Larry
