Calls to CombresLink are case sensitive - could this be changed? about combres

[buunguyen]

It is possible to change but it will be breaking change (because people might be relying on case sensitivity) and I'm not sure it's worth it. Isn't it possible to change your combres config or the variable?

The problem for me is that my project is sold as a product and installed multiple times on different hosts and thus is configured by multiple different people and not under my control. When it breaks it just causes an exception in my product that results in a call to my colleagues who deal with support who then need to check the logs.

It would seem someone would have to be a bit masochistic to need/want to define 2 resource sets with the same name that differ only by case given that there is no compiler checking in this scenario, however I understand the desire not to want to introduce any compatibility issues.

How about adding a nameSensitivity attribute to <resourceSets> which has a default of true? This would then maintain the existing functionality but when set to false would treat name attributes as case insensitive?
