Re: [Libvirt-cim] [PATCH] Some minor std_association fixes

If they try to pass an invalid reference (i.e. one we don't

thing if they ask for a result that we don't support a transition to?
Rather, shouldn't these two cases behave the same, no matter what that
behavior should be?
You mean, instead of returning success, we should set the status using
cu_statusf(). Returning an error makes sense from a client point of
view. If the client thinks an association is going to return a specific
instance, and nothing is returned, it won't know the state of the
system. If an error is returned, it's much more obvious to the client
what has happened.
