Clarify the process order in edit-config #20

Open lllyfeng opened 1 year ago

lllyfeng commented 1 year ago

if a edit-config request contains many operations, what is the correct order? according the order in xml document or can vendors determine it's order freely?

And, if multiple operations apply to the same object, what is the process order? for example:

<a>
    <b nc:operation = "delete"/>
</a>
<a>
   <b nc:operaiton = "merge">
       <c>100</c>
  </b>
</a>

what is the correct order?

Agree that clarification is needed.

The RFC already has some text about all-or-none. If all of the edit operations can be satisfied then the complete edit request is OK.

This is not clear enough wrt/ nested operations and interaction with the default-operation parameter.
