That's definitely not going to happen. It's also not possible to know when a Deferred is "done" (since there are no weakrefs or __del__ equivalent for JS), so there can't be some kind of error handler implicitly added to the end of the chain. If you want to create robust async applications you're going to have to put error handlers at the end of any Deferred chain that you don't expect to see any errors from. -bob --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MochiKit" group.
