spec boolean written as string #532

Closed bendichter closed 3 years ago

bendichter commented 3 years ago

In some environments, a cached spec with booleans (e.g. an attribute where required=False) is written as required: "false" (false as a string instead of a bool). This writes without error but causes a build error when it is read in pynwb with load_namespaces=True. @owoolnough came across this error and I have not yet been able to reproduce the write error.

Do we know whether this was written with PyNWB, MatNWB, or other? What version of the schema was this?

Oh it might have been MatNWB. That would explain it!
