[Phpwiki-talk] assert ...

[Jim C. <ji...@in...>]

I might have the wrong idea, but why are there numerous 'assert' calls 
in the code, in things like function getRevisionBefore($version) in 
WikiDB.php?

If I understand assert correctly, it throws an error if it's function 
is not true ... ? All that happens in the wiki is an unsightly error 
message (and no page template, etc) when it's triggered. I think this 
one is triggered by (near)simultaneous edits, but they seem to work OK 
when refreshing the page.

If asserts are needed, can the user experience be improved somehow?
