Got another question... In the C spec 1.0, the two boolean-valued attributes, drmaa_join_files and drmaa_block_email, have different string values for true and false. drmaa_join_files says to use 'y' or 'n'; drmaa_block_email says '1' or '0'. Should I follow this to the letter as an implementor of the 1.0 C spec? The Java and IDL specs use actual boolean values rather than strings; will a later version of the C spec begin supporting non-string attribute values? If not, will these be made consistent? Thanks, Ed
