Hi Sebastian,

I am just referring s per windows implementation here. So the user may
try to enroll the same finger several times and since the templates are
stored in device(Not the host) it may run out of memory. Hence this
duplicate check is necessary for those devices which stores the
templates in device memory itself.

The other thing is you need to provide an API in the libfprint to do the
duplicate check when enrolling a new finger. So this command goes to the
device all through and device itself sees whether the finger is already
enrolled or not. Depending on this output further enrollment process can
be continued or a warning message can be displayed(As in windows).

You can refer the windows WBF API's for the same.
