Hi Mathias
I can entirely understand your horror at this code, and indeed it is highly
contrived
to be about the simplest thing I can construct which reproduces the symptoms
produced from the real code.
The essential feature, in the terms of my example code, is that I only want
to
evaluate the end( ) method once, and avoid placing it in a named variable.
It seems Phoenix may be the answer to my needs, so many thanks for that
tip.
Regards, Rob.
