CxInspectionFlags
Description
Enumeration of flags that describe the consequences of a failed inspection.
The ordinal of the combination of inspection flags is a bitmask of the following structure:
16 12 0 | | | 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 \____________/ \__/ Identifier (12 bits) \__/ Target (4 bits) Severity (4 bits)
where Severity
is one of MaskSeverity, Target
is one of MaskTarget and Identifier
assigns an ordinal number to the inspection. By convention, inspection flags are presented as hexadecimal numbers having five digits and a CX
prefix:
CX01234 ||\_/ || Identifier |\_ Target \___ Severity
This scheme allows to make an educated quick guess about the problem at hand when encountering an inspection failure, without having to look up the documentation first.
