Yep, I agree and EWL follows the same model. We have tons of parameter and type checks and they can be passed a command line flag (maybe an env variable too) to trigger an abort mode. The difference is that this patch causes a silent failure mode, there's no bitching or abort option. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
