In addition, ADAMView 4.25 keeps the runtime from logging the same error messages. This will save
space within the log files and lessen the chance of running out of hard disk space.
(3) Protect Software Against Improper Use and/or Hardware Failure
To protect ADAMView runtime from a strategy that is partially or improperly configured, ADAMView 4.25
requests the user to configure all icons correctly. Partially configured or improperly configured strate-
gies will not be allowed to run in ADAMView 4.25. In addition, this protects ADAMView from hardware
malfunction by isolating the input.
