Description

Hello everyone,

i have the following schema:

<xs:complexType name="statusReportDetails">
		<xs:sequence>
			<xs:element name="state" type="abc:stateenum" dfdl:length="4" />
			<xs:element name="indicators" type="abc:indicators"  dfdl:length="16" />
			<xs:element name="v" type="v" dfdl:length="10" />
			<xs:element name="driverId" type="xs:string" dfdl:lengthKind="explicit" dfdl:length="128" dfdl:alignment="8" />
		</xs:sequence>
	</xs:complexType>

And the related bitstream:

0101 -> Enum
0000110000000001 -> indicators
0001100100 -> v
0000110001001100010011000100110001001100100011001000110010001100100011001100110011001100110011001100110100001101000011010000110100 -> driverId

The driverId has 130 bits and not the 128. bits which is defined in the schema.
My question is where comes the first two bits ? I know it is an configuration mistake or something like that.

I hope someone can help me.

Thank you.
Alex
