The spec says "may recover", it doesn't say "should recover", so it isn't technically wrong. That doesn't mean it can't be changed. But my personal expectation is an error if I explicitely say "error-if-overflow" instead of "hidden". If I say "hidden" I don't care if any content is lost. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
