I will repeat (reworded) something I said before, which is that I feel this feature should be renamed, as yield_true is clearly and repeatedly giving people the wrong idea for what it does, and the feature would be good to be renamed to something that more accurately describes what it does. Or if that isn't renamed, at least the documentation will have to be very clear to explain the real behavior and not what other behaviors the name would seem to imply. -- Darren DuncanThread Previous | Thread Next
