Description Svata Dedic 2002-02-11 11:33:37 UTC 
I am using extensively enumeration-typed attributes in my instances (most of
class members can have private/protected/public/package modifier, a
static/instance modifier and some can have regular/final/abstract modifier).
I observed that the values are stored as string literals in the MDR storage,
which is, decently said, a waste of space. Can it be improved or am I
misunderstanding some principles ?
Comment 1 Martin Matula 2002-03-06 20:00:37 UTC 
fixed - enum literals are now stored as single integers
