Hi list,
I am trying to understand all code related to barcodes.
1. It appears that C4::Barcodes is only used in additem.pl. Additem.pl appears not to be involved in batch processing.
2. 952$p (barcode) does not appear in the Add Item Koha screen, so the plugin is not callable.
If all this is true, then whey is there a barcode.pl value_builder? When would it be called?
Is the barcode.pl value_builder only invoked when AutoBarcode type is "NONE"? In which case the code in barcode.pl value_builder effectively replaces that in C4::Barcodes? (the logic of the various barcode types appears to be duplicated in barcode.pl).
Can I just customize barcode.pl to effectively solve the problem of assigning barcodes leaving C4::Barcodes, and C4/Barcodes/* untouched? -or- are is modification of both methods necessary for some reason?
Thanks,
Pete.
