Re: Newest. Was: Trapping errors with CALLP?

[Rob Berendt <rob@xxxxxxxxx>]

I think it is fair to inform people on the easiest way to do things.  Methods 
that are the current 'best practices'.  If they are on an older release they 
have multiple choices:  upgrade, move to somewhere that will upgrade, inform 
us that the method doesn't work with their release.  Sorry to say, but even if 
they say they are on an older release I may suggest the current best practices. 
 
Why?  Two reasons.  One to show them that the function is available.  Two, I 
don't have the time to research as to when the function became available.  If 
they reply back that the function doesn't work then maybe I'll suggest an 
alternative.  Hopefully Dave took my reply of 'suffer' as humor (as little as 
it was perhaps).  Perhaps that is the reason for the one persons 'tone' message?

(It really frustrates me how people just assume you're running
some variant of V4, and can use the newest versions of RPG)
