sooo, we don't want to validate attributes for execution providers (bcs they will change a lot)? or we just don't want to validate things specified with the 'jobAttributes' key? if it's the former i'm not *quite* sure what to do with this bug, since it says<br>
<br>"Swift should warn the user (or give a fatal error) if parameters specified in
the sites file dont apply to the selected provider(s)."<br><br>if the attribute list is meant to be dynamic, is it possible to extract the parameters of an execution provider for a given version by *somehow* searching thru the user's swift installation?<br>
<br>sorry if i'm missing something obvious here...<br><br>~sk<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

But I have to say that the attributes are things that are meant to be<br>
flexible. Chances are you don't want to validate them much.<br>
