From 4042e87d492cec809265b0ba9f6e508a14523478 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonathan Druart Date: Tue, 18 Apr 2017 13:49:18 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] Bug 18179: Forbid list context calls for Koha::Objects->find Reading https://perlmaven.com/how-to-return-undef-from-a-function this sound like the more correct behaviour. Considering: $template->param( stuff => Koha::Stuffs->find( $id ), foo => 1, ); without this patch, if the $id does not represent any rows in the DB, stuff will be assigned to 'foo' and $foo will be undef in the template. That can lead to very bad side-effects. With this patch we make sure that it will never happen again.
