Yes, you are missing something.

What I wanted -- I have given up on it -- was to be able to

check that the number of parameters passed was correct.

The case that I ran into trouble with is when too many

parameters are passed. Suppose a procedure takes three parameters

and four are passed. It would be nice to be able to detect this in

the procedure, but instead an error is thrown. This happens before

anything in the procedure is executed. Yes, you could put that

detection in the caller, but then, why not just call correctly? Plus

this does not work if the procedure is standalone which is what I wanted.
