more days, when I get some confidence that there are not other
problems to fix! Please read embedded comments/questions in code.
- Some more comemnts added later. We do sometimes get non-zero
return values from possibly_send_result(). I think that this is
because you've failed to match up the start_transaction and
commit_transaction pairs. Be careful: sleeps AND modifies the
DB. Right now I am too tired to fix this without making it worse.
Your turn.
- A few other comments. Currently, I am 'advertising' filenames
returned by get_working_set_filename() for TWO types of files:
(1) those for which I can make more work
(2) those for which I can NOT make more work, but where you have
not flagged with flag_for_possible_removal().
I am not sure that I understand the intent of
flag_for_possible_removal(). You surely are not guaranteeing
that no results will ever appear in the future for these files
(outstanding results might fail). So what is my WU generator
supposed to do with flag_for_possible_removal? Is (2) above
correct?
- Finally, I have not yet seen a SINGLE instance of a
flag_for_possible_removal. Is the logic right?
