Hi Lada,
- In the introduction, you mention:
Typical use cases are:
o Deactivating a subtree in a configuration datastore while keeping
the data in place.
o Complementing data model information with instance-specific data.
o RPC operations may use metadata annotations for various purposes
in both requests and responses. For example, the <edit-config>
operation in the NETCONF protocol (seesection 7.2 of [RFC6241]
<https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6241#section-7.2>)
uses annotations in the form of XML attributes for identifying the
point in the configuration and type of the operation.
Don't you have any other examples than those 3?
What about showing these examples with the spec. in this document?
Note: I see that the first one is documented with module
example-inactive
Well, the backlash I received with
draft-lhotka-netmod-yang-annotations-00 (expired) show that whilst there
is consensus about general utility of annotations, practical definitions
may be controversial.
Even as example?
Yes, I am afraid.
I would be in favor to have at the very minimum one example.
Otherwise, it's difficult to visualize how these metadata should be used.
