Description
I just disabled one PI that is applied in a CR with 2 other PIs (so my CR has a total of 3 PI). However, the generated promises still include the info from that PI!
- Status changed from New to Pending technical review
- % Done changed from 0 to 100
- Status changed from Pending technical review to Released
That seems OK, but it is highlighting a fundamental flow that I knew will it at one time or another: basically, we are fuzzing the semantic of Empty (a valid empty result) and Failure (an error).
To be strict, (and we are seing here that we should have), in several cases, our Box[Something] Should be Box[Option[Something]] to stay with the "empty = error" semantic of Lift.
So, let it be like that for now, but we should REALLY look to scalaz validation type1 in place of Box (Box let you do bad things).
