#417 new defect

archive.pl1 xd and xdf operations result in data loss if an archive has 2+ same-named components

Reported by: Jim Lippard Owned by: Eric Swenson
Priority: minor Milestone: No Milestore
Component: Standard Library Version: MR12.9
Keywords: archive, archive.pl1 Cc:

Description

The archive command will not create an archive with duplicate component names, but if such an archive is created, the xdf operation will extract each successive duplicately named component over the previous and then delete all of them from the archive, leaving only the last one extracted. With xd, any components you say "yes" to will overwrite previously extracted ones and be deleted from the archive, any you say "no" to will remain in the archive.
