Hi!
Sorry for being late on this.
Similarly, a -c that comes accross a repeatable field in the original
record could halt and notify while some other parameter could
overwrite it (so similar to -ir). Just a thought, though.
Do you mean that when a certain record R contains field F1 that is
present N1 times, and the incoming MARC file contains well F1 but
present N2 times, then `-c' should halt if N1 is different from N2?
Something like that.
OT1H, I understand this would provide a nice safety net for certain
editing situations. OTOH, it occurs often that the field number
changes, say adding/removing author, adding/removing reference,
adding/removing report number or publication...
I think some --force will be ok, signalling explicitly that you know
that this can happen and that you take your chanes ;)
So I think it would not be worth to change the default behaviour of the
`correct' mode. But perhaps we could introduce a new optional `safe
correct' mode that would behave in the above-described way.
Or that way around. However, this would be destructive by default.
But even here I'm not so sure about its usefulness, provided the current `-c'
mode is well documented and the explained?
Actually, I admit that I know that it's exactly working that way as it
does. However, recently I dropped a lot of ID fields cause when I wrote
the corrected xml's I missed a certain case that was just not present in
my samples. :S That's how I came accords it.
