Sounds good to me, but since you are on the client side of the adapter
the question is: does that work for you? I assume it will, otherwise
you wouldn't have suggested it :-).

Hi Miguel,
I think that that is a good idea. I was wondering whether it may make
sense to capture a 'log' of errors which at the end of parsing the
file
is thrown as an exception and not throw an exception during parsing
and
stop parsing at that point. The latter is of course only possible if
the exception that occurs is indeed such that one can recover from it.
I was thinking of having a set of 'warning' strings. The JmolAdapter
would
iterate through the set of strings, fetching them one by one.
This would address warning conditions, but not error conditions that
would
throw an exception.
You are suggesting that we do something similar for error conditions.
What do you think about having the JmolAdapter never throw an exception
... but always having it return with a status condition (OK, warnings,
errors) with a set of strings as messages ... to be handled by the
client.
