One thing you learn with working with libraries, is that assuming that the way your library does it is the same way others do it is the single biggest mistake you can make.
Totally agree, which is why I tried to ensure I personalized my comment. But then, that also goes the other way -- just because (it appears) some libraries may want to wipe all their fines doesn't mean everyone follows that business rule.
What I actually said is talking about if it's a bug or an enhancement is moot, until someone either pays someone to, or writes code themselves to change it.
If I misled you to thinking I did not understand your point, I apologize, as I absolutely do -- again, I tried to express my perspective by saying "we", as in HMCPL. I tempered that with questioning if the existing business logic was indeed a valid use case, which if no one uses it this way, why is it coded thus? If no one uses a feature because the business logic does not reflect the real world, is it really a feature, or a bug? And yes, I would be okay if numLibraries ge 1. I'd even be okay with anecdotal evidence. Like I said, I (personally, and as a representative of HMCPL) was just having trouble wrapping my head around this business logic.
Awesome, I assume you will be working on a patch for this? Or paying someone to do this for you?
Indeed, I've been working on this angle for a few weeks since discovering this "feature". Thanks for your time and consideration. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. You are watching all bug changes.
