Re: [Treesoft-treefam] API problem with malformed or fake trees

[Jean-Karim H. <jk...@sa...>]

Hi Sebastien,

The current behaviour is to die on bad trees. I think this is the safest
procedure as not doing so would allow further processing of bad trees.
This would generate errors difficult to trace both in other parts of the
API and in any code using the API.
However, the error message could be more explicit and report on the
family AC and type of tree causing the error. Would you also have the
message say 'bad tree' instead of 'unrecognized format' ?
