Hi
We just observed on our development branches that ULC crashes when clients with
old ULC version (in our case ULC 2008 u2 build.3670) tries to connect to a
server with a newer ULC version (ULC 2008 u4 build.5088). This is hopefully
something never happens in a production environment, but still a nice and clean
error message that there is a version mismatch would be much better than the
exception that is thrown. We thought that earlier there was such a mechanism.
The exception looks like ULC already fails to deserialize the start request
containing the (wrong) client-side version info on the server-side before even
being able to compare the client- and server-side versions (i.e. because the
basic request/client-info deserialization mechanism has changed between those
two versions)
