[jira] [Reopened] (DAFFODIL-2566) Extend C code generator to support hexBinary elements

["Dave Thompson (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-2566?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Dave Thompson reopened DAFFODIL-2566:
-------------------------------------

While verifying this ticket I found that commit 49860979c83fbca77183c022d3dd679e8540f7df fails 62+ daffodil-runtime2 sbt tests when executed on CentOS 7 which is the OS on the nightly performance test server.

Rolled commit back to previous commit and the daffodil-runtime2 sbt tests pass.

Josh Adams verified same tests pass on Fedora 34 and CentOS 8 for me.

Reopening.

> Allow Daffodil to generate C code from DFDL schemas using the type
> "hexBinary" for fixed length and prefixed length opaque byte arrays.
> The "hex" simply means that the binary 8-bit bytes are represented by
> hexadecimal characters in the XML infoset and the C code knows how to
> convert between these binary and text representations when parsing
> binary bytes or unparsing XML infosets. Add hexBinary elements to the
> ex_nums test schema to exercise the new code.
