  === {{id name="_Toc291505"/}}4.1.1 Data Types ===
--XML and JSON schemas support a variety of data types that, although rich, are not mapped one-to-one in all cases. This section provides an explanation of the mapping performed in SDMX 3.0, between such cases.
++XML and JSON schemas support a variety of data types that, although rich, are not (% style="color:#2ecc71" %)mapped(%%) one-to-one in all cases. This section provides an explanation of the mapping performed in [[SDMX>>doc:xwiki:Glossary.Statistical data and metadata exchange.WebHome]] 3.0, between such cases.
--For identifiers, text fields and Codes there are no restriction from either side, since a generic type (e.g., that of string) accompanied by the proper regular expression works equally well for both XML and JSON.
++For identifiers, text fields and [[Codes>>doc:xwiki:Glossary.Code.WebHome]] there are no restriction from either side, since a generic type (e.g., that of string) accompanied by the proper regular expression works equally well for both XML and JSON.
  For example, for the id type, this is the XML schema definition:
--<xs:simpleType name="IDType">
++> <xs:simpleType name="IDType">
++>   <xs:restriction base="NestedIDType">
++>     <xs:pattern value="[A-Za-z0-9_@$\-]+"/>
++>   </xs:restriction>
++> </xs:simpleType>
--<xs:restriction base="NestedIDType">
--
--<xs:pattern value="[A-Za-z0-9_@$\-]+"/>
--
--</xs:restriction>
--
--</xs:simpleType>
--
  Where the NestedIDType is also a restriction of string.
  The above looks like this, in JSON schema:
--"idType": {
++> "idType": {
++>   "type": "string",
++>   "pattern": "^[A-Za-z0-9_@$-]+$"
++> }
--"type": "string",
++There are also cases, though, that data types cannot be (% style="color:#2ecc71" %)mapped(%%) like above. One such case is the array data type, which was introduced in [[SDMX>>doc:xwiki:Glossary.Statistical data and metadata exchange.WebHome]] 3.0 as a new [[representation>>doc:xwiki:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]]. In JSON schema an array is already natively foreseen, while in the XML schema, this has to be defined as a complex type, with an [[SDMX>>doc:xwiki:Glossary.Statistical data and metadata exchange.WebHome]] specific definition (i.e., specific element/[[attribute>>doc:xwiki:Glossary.Attribute.WebHome]] names for [[SDMX>>doc:xwiki:Glossary.Statistical data and metadata exchange.WebHome]]). Beyond that, the minimum and/or maximum number of items within an array is possible in both cases.

  Fundamental to processing a time value parameter in a query message is understanding that all time periods should be handled as a distinct range of time. Since the time parameter in the query is paired with an operator, this also effectively represents a distinct range of time. Therefore, a system processing the query must simply match the data where the time period for requested parameter is encompassed by the time period resulting from value of the query parameter. The following table details how the operators should be interpreted for any time period provided as a parameter.

  Reporting Time Periods as query parameters are handled like this: any data within the bounds of the reporting period for the year is matched, regardless of the actual start day of the reporting year. In addition, data reported against a normal calendar period is matched if it falls within the bounds of the time parameter based on a reporting year start day of January 1. When determining whether another reporting period falls within the bounds of a report period query parameter, one will have to take into account the actual time period to compare weeks and days to higher order report periods.

The artefact identifiers are qualified by their version numbers – that is, an object with an Agency of "A", and ID of "X" and a version of "1.0.0" is a different object than one with an Agency of "A", an ID of "X", and a version of "1.1.0".

For example, a categorisation references both a category and the object is it categorising. As this is the case, one can query for categorisations which categorise a particular object or which categorise against a particular category or category scheme. This mechanism should be used when the referenced object is known.
  When the referenced object is not known, then the reference resolution mechanism could be used. For example, suppose one wanted to find all category schemes and the related categorisations for a given maintenance agency. In this case, one could query for the category scheme by the maintenance agency and specify that parent and sibling references should be resolved. This would result in the categorisations which reference the categories in the matched schemes to be returned, as well as the object which they categorise.
