Bug? system.tag.readBlocking(ClientTag)

Ignition
1

So I got notified today that something that works everywhere else is not working in the following situation.

A normal
system.tag.readBlocking("[default]SingleTag").value
returns the value.
If you do this against a single client tag,
system.tag.readBlocking("[client]SingleTag").value
it comes back with
attributeError: 'java.util.ArrayList' object has no attribute 'value'

We put the [0] in there and it reads fine, I understand the error and how to work around it, but I am not sure why it only does this when reading client tags vs tag provider tags?

Does it though? It doesn't for me...

This is the bug, this isn’t normal at all. According to the docs, ‘readBlocking()’ is supposed to return a List. I have always needed to use [0] for reliable results.

Acchuuually.. We're the bug.

system.tag.read("[default]SingleTag").value

works...
It also works against a client tag...
So half assed the trying to bring it up to the newer readBlocking...
