- Subject: Bumping the MI level
I think we should collect together all th incompatible changes that we
would like to make to MI and, perhaps after the next release, bump the MI
level up one.
Here's a change I would like to make for the new level (it partly relates to a
thread from a few years ago):
All user errors in MI to go through error () and get caught by
mi_execute_command.
All MI errors, e.g, "mi_cmd_thread_select: USAGE: threadnum." to go
via MI_CMD_ERROR/mi_error_message back to captured_mi_execute_command
and use a new RESULT-CLASS, ^internal-error, say. These are errors
that should only occur if the front-end is improperly configured.
