Oups! My mistake (and apologies) about the understanding of the defination of
overhangs.
thinking for a while and re-diving into the codes, George is right, maybe it's
truly a bug.
the confused codes is the following functions in RestrictionEnzyme.java
...
public int getDownstreamEndType

maybe it's not suitable for me to answer this question. but i am glad to
share
my understanding here.(just my guess)
to be a biologist, it is right for the defination of overhangs in the
reference.
but in the case involved in a cut type where the enzyme cuts in two
positions
relative to the re
