Error in Engine callback does not get handled by PostStepRuntimeError

[snowpunter]

I've been unable to find any threads addressing this issue. I'm overriding the SequenceFilePostStepRuntimeError engine callback in a client sequence file. I'm also overriding a few other engine callbacks like SequenceFilePreStep and SequenceFileLoad.

The issue that I'm running into is that if a runtime error occurs inside of the the engine callbacks (i.e. SequenceFilePreStep) then the SequenceFilePostStepRuntimeError callback does not handle the error and it resorts to using whatever station option I have set (e.g. shows the error dialog box)

What (if anything) can be done to have the SequenceFilePostStepRuntimeError callback handle errors that occur in other engine callbacks?

Did some more searching and found this. Any other ideas?

Look in the TestStand reference manual in chapter 10 under Caveats for Using Engine Callbacks:

5th bullet point!
