4654.0. "MSL codes unique in mcc_vea_def.h" by TAEC::FRESNEDA () Tue Mar 09 1993 05:37

From what I understand about MSL codes unicity : 

event groups/attribute groups/attribute partitions/event partitions codes 
have to be universally unique within the set of event groups, attribute groups,
attribute partitions, event partitions codes.

But looking at /usr/include/mcc_vea_def.h:
#define MCC_K_PRT_PRIVATE_EVENTS_10 40
and
#define MCC_K_GRP_LANCITY_STATISTICS 40

Isn't it contrary to the previous rule ?

4654.1Yes, looks like a conflictTOOK::MINTZErik MintzTue Mar 09 1993 07:3114
Yes, it looks like we have a conflict.  Thanks for pointing this out.
We have forwarded the information to the registrar so that the conflict
will be resolved in a future release.

Meanwhile, fortunately, the first code is provided for temporary use
in private extensions, and so long as it is not used in conjunction
with the LANcity management module there will be no practical side effects
from this oversite.

It might be best not to plan on further use of these codes until the
conflict is resolved.

4654.2I don't believe that there is a conflict.....DSSR1::LUND$SET HOUSE/MONEYPIT=TRUEFri Apr 02 1993 12:4616
In the MCC SRM in section 7.4.3, it states:

    5.  An attribute or event partition code must be unique within
        the set of all attribute and event partition codes. Attribute
        and event partition codes are therefore universal.

    6.  An attribute or event group code must be unique within
        the set of all attribute and event group codes. Attribute
        and event group codes are therefore universal.


To me, this means that there is no conflict between the codes for
groups and partitions.
