Yup - I realised that. > DS> I'm not sure why this code sets one default timeout value and then > DS> overrides it later. > DS> Why not just set the correct value in the first place? > > The timer object is created in the internal interface file, where users > aren't meant to be mucking about. Then a user init routine (in the > data_access file) is called to let the user tweak some parameters. But that still doesn't explain why the code sets two different values (with no indication which one will actually be used). This just seems like unnecessary confusion. At the very least, comment the internal file to say that this is a dummy placeholder value! Anyway - I think you know my feelings about this framework by now, and there's probably no significant benefit in thrashing this argument out yet again. I should know better, and allow you to respond to questions about this code rather than chipping in myself. Sorry.
