Are you suggesting that all methods should be written as a loops around attempts to do real work, catching OOME and re-trying until the work gets done? That's what it sounds like, here. IMHO, it's not a library's problem if there wasn't enough memory to perform its duty. It's the driver's responsibility to catch and re-attempt anything important. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGr7gq9CaO5/Lv0PARAjYhAJ0eyYzCaDls9rsjrvoJS6xu6XogCgCeKgr+ acntG1IntJLIABNbcEFKOh0= =thpd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
