[YANGTOOLS-1235] Add SchemaInferenceStack.enterChoice(QName)

Fri, 12 Feb 2021 10:29:02 +0000

yang-data-impl's SchemaTracker performs a rather weird dance, where (due to NormalizedNode) hierarchy it performs a hybrid schema tree/data tree walk.

While it can enter a ChoiceEffectiveStatement via schema tree, it needs to deal with choice/case/choice traversal, where it does not see the intermediate case.

SchemaInferenceStack is well equipped to handle this, as it already needs to deal with choice/case crossing during SchemaNodeIdentifier construction when data tree steps are involved.

Introduce an alternative enterChoice(QName), which will examine parent and based on that either turns into a enterSchemaTree() or, if parent is a Choice, will do a case traversal search – resulting in a clean=false step which resolveSchemaTreeSteps() needs to unwind.
