[DGD] Re: rlimits() question

[harte at xs4all.nl]

Quoting your message from 20 May:

[...]

| place? I think that if one does nothing, the defaults are no
| limits, and if one wants to establish limits, one puts the code:
| 
|    rlimits {
|       stuff ;
|    }
| 
| someplace that every function call will encounter it. The question
| is, where does one put that? I imagine receive_message in the driver
| would work for anything generated by the user, but call_outs I'm
| less sure about. Do the rlimits that were in place when the call_out
| was invoked continue to apply when the call_out runs?

No, you'll have to put another rlimits() around the actual call.

By the way, 'rlimits' is technically not a kfun but part of the
language, similar to the 'catch' keyword.

Hope that helps,

Erwin.
