Hi,
Sec. 6.2 lists several naming scopes for various YANG constructs.
Most of it seems fine, except I am concerned about the confusion factor
that can result:
module foo {
namespace "http://example.com/foo-ns";
prefix "foo";
description "do you have anything without foo in it?";
typedef foo {
type int32;
}
grouping foo {
leaf x { type foo; }
}
container foo {
leaf a { type foo; }
uses foo;
choice b {
case foo {
leaf c { type foo; }
}
case b {
container d {
uses foo;
}
}
}
}
}
Is this much flexibility such a good idea?
I don't think the lack of individual naming scopes for every
type of identifier has been a big problem in the SNMP world.
Andy
