need apply.paramset logging

I'm testing paramset combinations with:

.....
library(doMC)
registerDoMC(cores=detectCores())
paramsetenv = new.env()
results = apply.paramset(qs.strategy, paramset.label = "MACDOPT",
verbose = TRUE,
                           portfolio=qs.strategy, account=qs.strategy,
nsamples=0, audit=paramsetenv)

but the procedure returns NULL object with this message:

error calling combine function:
<simpleError: $ operator is invalid for atomic vectors>

Is there a way to log threads errors?

Or how can I modify "apply.paramset" function to "catch" single
simultation error or void result and discard it?

you're setting

nsamples=0

so you have zero results to combine.

In this case, you told it to run no samples, but I can conceive of a 
strategy using some MCMC sampler that could fail spontaneously in some 
circumstances.

In a more general sense, you could specify a custom .combine function 
that could trap errors if there was some possibility that your strategy 
would fail to return a viable result.

A strategy that runs fine in a single core should run fine in 
apply.paramset.  A reasonable way to start testing this beyond a single 
parameterization would be to set a small number of samples, like 
nsamples=50 and run it with registerDoSEQ() to run it sequentially.
