Issue 7945: Requirement Satisfier "name" Attribute is not Optional                                                                                                                                                  (deployment-rtf)
Source: Mercury Computer Systems (Mr. Frank Pilhofer, fpilhofe@mc.com)
Nature: Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: In section 6.10.4.2 (RequirementSatisfier attribute), the
description for the "name" attribute reads, "An optional name
for the requirement satisfier."


This is in violation of our convention for "name" attributes
(see section 6.3), and in fact, other parts of the specification
make use of the fact that the name uniquely identifies a
RequirementSatisfier within its parent, e.g., the Resource
Deployment Description element; its resourceName identifies a
resource by the requirement satisfier's name.


Proposed resolution:


In section 6.10.4.2, change the description for the "name"
attribute from


  name: String    An optional name for the requirement satisfier.


to


  name: String    The requirement satisfier's name, which uniquely
                  identifies this requirement satisfier within its
                  container.

Revised Text: In section 6.10.4.2, change the description for the "name" attribute from

    name: String      An optional name for the requirement satisfier.

                      identifies this requirement satisfier within its
                      container.
