You know, I bet the real answer is to use a combination of techniques. Maybe have the plug-in return an error code, but also include the message in the output parameters as a backup. That way, you've got multiple ways to get the message to the user.

Absolutely. This question is pretty straightforward, but it's important to make sure we're choosing the most appropriate solution. Including the message in the output parameters is the way to go here. *chuckles* Although, I do wonder if any of us will accidentally include a snarky message like 'Try not to be so dumb next time.'

Yeah, I think that's the way to go. It's a nice clean solution that fits the requirements. Plus, it's always better to give the user clear and specific feedback when something goes wrong, rather than just a generic error message.

I agree, that solution makes sense. By putting the message in the output parameters, we can easily access it and display it on the form for the user. This way, they'll have the information they need to resolve the issue.

I'm with Shonda on this one. The solution seems simple and straightforward. As long as the form is designed to properly display the message, I don't see any issues with putting it in the output parameters.

Hmm, this seems like a straightforward question. If we need to display a message to the user when validation fails, then including that message in the output parameters of the plugin sounds like a reasonable solution to me.

I agree with Malissa. The solution seems overly complicated. Wouldn't it be better to have the plug-in throw an exception or return a specific error code that the form can then use to display the appropriate message to the user?

Hmm, I'm not so sure. Putting the message in the output parameters seems a bit hacky to me. Wouldn't it be better to have the plug-in directly update the form with the error message? That way, the user wouldn't have to try to interpret the output parameters.

I think the solution of including the message in the output parameters of the plug-in is a good one. It seems like a straightforward way to get the message to the user, as long as the form is designed to properly display that message.

I'm not sure about this question. The requirements are a bit vague, and I'm not sure if the proposed solution really meets the goal of displaying a message to the user.
