Meaning:
  - when it is a var parameter, am error message is issued.
  - when it is a value parameter: conversion is called
  - type cast will do a conversion
  - assignment will do a conversion (at least if the target encoding ID 
is not zero.)
  - the conversion will not happen if the source encoding ID is "Raw"

Correct ?
