Yes - we can all live without that.

Not to put words in Jon's mouth, but he was simply commenting on the
difficulty in unwinding the stack trace. At least that was the way I
read it. My response to you Jon is, "Yeah, it can be a little daunting
to deal with"

That is exactly what I was getting at Pete - thanks. It is tough enough when you wrote the Java yourself - but when it is generated (in this case by EGL) you are one step further removed and you lack the one-to-one correlation.

I didn't see anything in Jon's post that was disparaging to EGL but Jon
doesn't need me to defend him. EGL is a different beast and I will
agree, Jon, that the errors and debugging takes some getting used to.
Whether or not a programmer used to RPG and new to EGL can deal with the
transition is something yet to be clearly established.

But thanks anyway Pete - and for stating the issue clearly.
