Test defensively. We're not just talking EAPI=8, etc, here. What |
| 17 |
happens if someone typos EAPI=56 or some such? Positively support what |
| 18 |
you recognize. If it's unrecognized, it should always fall thru to an |
| 19 |
error saying it's unsupported. Much easier to debug that way. =:^) |
