Concerns on current xmlID implementation in the GI Registry #2
We have an
action to update the S-101 PC to use the xmlID values from the registry to
ensure portrayal catalogs can work with one another (the same concept uses the
same lookup in different PC’s).
Before I do
this, should I use the currently registered xmlID’s which appear to be random
numbers? For instance, the xmlID for viewing group 11050 is “915”. The xmlID
for the over radar display plane is “1503”. My preference would be to have
meaningful identifiers to make the PC easier to read and maintain.

Item | Current xmlID | Suggested xmlID -- | -- | -- Viewing Group 11050 | “915” | “11050” Display Plane over radar | “1503” | “OverRADAR” Display mode “Display Base” | “927” | “DisplayBase” Context parameter “Safety Depth” | “1459” | “SafetyDepth”These xmlID values correspond to the “id” values embedded in PC’s. They are used to identify catalog entries:
