Found this while implementing the changes for WT-12298, when we call: cursor->bound("action=set") intentionally leaving out the bound API string. It actually returns "lower" as the choice for "bound". This is a bug as it should return NULL, or NOTSET or something along those lines. The user should get an error thrown saying they left out a configuration string.
A valid call to cursor bound looks like this: cursor->bound("action=set,bound=lower"). To reproduce:
- Checkout lukes-bounded-cursor-compile-branch
- Run python ../test/suite/run.py cursor_bound01
- It will fail with:
ubuntu@ip-10-0-1-170:~/wiredtiger/dist$ python ../test/suite/run.py cursor_bound01

donald.anderson@mongodb.com and I discussed on a call and it appears the compilation code chooses the wrong thing for "bound".
