It's just unlucky to be my co-worker . . .

There are just bugs in the software and they need to be fixed. The system I work on was originally written in 1990's by people who are not with the company or even in the industry any more - you bet I fix "their" bugs.

Agreed. Where I work we are all a team, and we do whatever needs to be done to deliver a successful project.

Personally I’m quite happy with that.
I appreciate a ‘heads up’, but I cannot be anything but happy when somebody is willing to put in the effort required to work on something I’ve done - as long as they also make sure that unit and integration tests are still working.
Ideally I’d also like to see a regression test that ensures that the bug stays fixed in the future too.

But when the bug was actually a feature and the clever fella that fixed it hadn't bothered to read the documentation, Grrrrr!!!
I may not last forever but the mess I leave behind certainly will.
|

By documentation, you mean the manual? I would understand not reading that, but ignoring comments in the code about its featurefulness would be pretty thick of them.

If you come from an engineering background the rule is 'when all else fails, try reading the manual'.

At one job I had, every bug that came in was assigned a 'caused by' as in who's code broke the build. Developers then got assigned bugs to fix on the number they caused, but they were generally other people's bugs. The idea was that the more care you took in development the less time you had to spend in maintenance. I thought it was a good idea.

That's a synonymous for "we don't have users".

Nope, we just document the bugs and call 'em "features"!

I just claim the bugs were caused by the Chaos Theory. If you ramble long enough about how it apparently applies people lose interest in complaining fairly quickly.

Although I work in a large business with many software devs and teams I tend to work solely on projects by myself.

It might not be a bug - it could be I misinterpreted it - or it might be a bug which makes his code work.
If I fix it, it could break his code.
I'd talk it over and work out a solution that doesn't break anyones code before I went ahead unilaterally.
Not that it happens here, obviously.

Oh, and of course this won't be an issue if it is related to a CListCtrl...
This said, which was the first bacon and listctrl post here  ...
Yes, we do it... once a bug is detected we try to find out what has originated it and then we try to solve it as a team.
|
|
|
|
|
I usually tell the author about the bug, and ask if he wants me to fix it or if he prefers to fix it by himself.
|

My upvote - I fully agree! In a team you should talk first and not silently fix someone else's code. If possible, the "owner" fixes, but if circumstances mandate/allow, anyone should be allowed to fix or even to rewrite.

NO, I don't mess with anyone's bugs. I know that they know how will they fix it. But if my co-worker asked for help, I am willing to give it.
But sometimes, I tried removing someone else's bugs, if it will have a direct effect on my project.
