No, it can't go there because that phase doesn't have a corresonding undo. It has to go in the commit phase. An undoFailed from the sub-agent isn't any different than any other erron in the commit phase (sub-agent or not). -- Robert Story; NET-SNMP Junkie Support: <http://www.net-snmp.org/> <irc://irc.freenode.net/#net-snmp> Archive: <http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum=net-snmp-coders> You are lost in a twisty maze of little standards, all different. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IntelliVIEW -- Interactive Reporting Tool for open source databases.
