DA Sample Client Browse issue with 'Has Children' flag|Classic OPC: DA, A&E, HDA, XML-DA, etc.|Forum|OPC Foundation

It appears that the DA sample client doesn’t request items on a branch unless the server sets the ‘OPC_BROWSE_HASCHILDREN’ bit of the dwFlagValue in the OPCBROWSEELEMENT structure when processing a OPC 3.0 Browse() request. Is this a bug or do I not understand the usage for ‘OPC_BROWSE_HASCHILDREN’.

The description says:

If the first bit is set (OPC_BROWSE_HASCHILDREN), then this indicates that the returned element has children and can be used for a subsequent browse.

When my server has a branch with items but no child branches, I have to set the OPC_BROWSE_HASCHILDREN bit or the sample client can’t show the items.
