Guidelines for defining an implicit sequence that has no delimiter

  • The type of a component cannot be a binary item whose length is not fixed or sized.
  • If the range of a component is bound, but the type of the component is unbound, the type must be ending-distinguishable from each type in the component's following set.
  • If the range of a component is not bound, all the following rules apply:
    • The type of the component must be content-distinguishable from each type in the component's following set.
    • If the maximum range for that component is greater than one, and the type is unbound, the type must be ending-distinguishable from itself.
    • If the type of the component is unbound, the type must be end-distinguishable from each type in the component's following set.
