I'm still planning to add better support for reporting where a message is coming from, and I was going to call my description of that a "message context". But I can call it an "origin" or "location" instead. > Further, a context can specify the manner in which messages are > reported, eg: dialog box, scrolled list, log file or combination > thereof. I was planning to put reporting of errors to the listing file at a layer below the reporting to the callback. Obviously this doesn't mesh with your plans. I'll have to do something else, then; perhaps the callback is responsible for deciding what, if any, errors should be reported to the listing file. > My rationale for this system is to allow sensible message reporting in > situations where errors are expected and non-fatal.

It sounds reasonable, but I don't have a good idea of how the GUI code works so I'm not really a good person to say. -- Ben Pfaff email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] web: http://benpfaff.org _______________________________________________ pspp-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pspp-dev
