[jira] [Created] (DAFFODIL-2006) DFDLGeneralFormat missing binaryCalendarEpoch.

Michael Beckerle created DAFFODIL-2006:
------------------------------------------

             Summary: DFDLGeneralFormat missing binaryCalendarEpoch.
                 Key: DAFFODIL-2006
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-2006
             Project: Daffodil
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Back End
            Reporter: Michael Beckerle


If DFDLGeneralFormat.dfdl.xsd is going to provide a default for most properties then this one should also be provided.

The unix epoch is the right value to use. 

This is a backward compatible change in that users who have schemas now have to provide this property themselves if it is needed; hence, if we provide a default in DFDLGeneralFormat then whatever the user provides will override our value, and their schema will not change in behavior.
