Errorback not invoked when module fails to load

[dizzib]

It seems a module load failure, for example due to network error, does not invoke an errorback.

Reproducable in hello-wire.js by amending index.html line 52...

function ok() { }
function fail(ex) { alert('FAIL:' + ex); }
require(['wire!hello-wired-spec']).then(ok, fail);

Then amend js/hello-wired.js line 7 to this...

define(['foo'], function() {

I'd have thought failing to load non-existant 'foo' should cause fail(ex) to invoke ?

The issue here is that the AMD standard unfortunately doesn't allow a plugin to propagate an error to modules that depend on it (or to the global loader API, e.g. curl()). We have support for this in curl.js, but it's not being utilized (yet) in wire.js.

I assume you're using wire.js, and if so, you should open a ticket there. Let me do that for you: cujojs/wire#32

Ok thanks!
