Re: Uncaught Errors in Interactive Programs and the Users that Ignore the Errors

Rob

I really don't see how this is contrary to what I said about having a general error handler in the event of completely unexpected errors - that, as far as I'm concerned, is what that top-level MONMSG is for - period.

So unless you really are looking for controversy, I see none.

Ok, so you get the pretty error handling email "shirts wrong - go fix it" with that kind of go to.
But if your job stream was 27 pages of cl and you're on page 20 and don't have good restart procedures it can be dicey. That's why I prefer the ability to use R to retry.

Then again, should you be running the job from hell interactively instead of batch? Or, if you just have to have a pretty status bar, have the batch job put entries on a data queue and your interactive job can process that.
