Description Daniel Kinzler 2014-02-26 14:40:19 UTC
wbsetclaim should allow new claims to be created by *not* supplying a GUID. Currently, it expected the client to provide a GUID.

Attempting to call wbsetclaim with a non-existing Claim-GUID should cause an error instead of creating a new claim. 

Note however that this is a breaking change: clients that do generate a GUID for new claims will then fail.
Comment 1 Jeroen De Dauw 2014-02-26 18:15:32 UTC
You list two distinct things here, while the title only alludes to one. Everyone is agreeing the first one should be the case, there is no agreement on the second. Hence I'd not put this in the same bug. Also, this bug just states stuff that should be, it does not explicitly specify this is not actually the case now. Has that been verified?
