Hi there,

I have tried to input value to build DvOrdinal.
RM Object Builder cannot accept "0" for value.

It says in the documentation that any value is ok.

[http://www.openehr.org/svn/specification/TRUNK/publishing/architecture/rm/data_types_im.pdf](http://www.openehr.org/svn/specification/TRUNK/publishing/architecture/rm/data_types_im.pdf)
Page: 44

Is it a bug, or is intended?

Hi Kong,

Thanks for the report\. A change request to the specification has made
it possible to create DvOrdinal with negative value, raised by myself
actually =\)

I just fixed it now on the trunk of the java implementation\.

Please in the future report Java implementation specific issue\(s\) on
the openEHR java list\.

Cheers,
Rong
