By default, pubsub will accept topic names for topics that don't have a message data specification (MDS). This default behavior makes pubsub easier to use initially, but allows topic names with typos to go uncaught in common operations such as sendMessage() and subscribe(). In a large application, this can lead to nasty bugs. Pubsub's default behavior is equivalent to setTopicUnspecifiedFatal(false). When called with newVal=True, any future pubsub operation that requires a topic (such as subscribe and sendMessage) will require an MDS; if none is available, pubsub will raise a TopicDefnError exception. If checkExisting is not given or True, all existing topics are validated. A TopicDefnError exception is raised if one is found to be incomplete (has hasMDS() false). Returns previous value of newVal. Note that this method can be used in several ways: 1. Only use it in your application when something is not working as expected: just add a call at the beginning of your app when you have a problem with topic messages not being received (for instance), and remove it when you have fixed the problem. 2. Use it from the beginning of your app and never use newVal=False: add a call at the beginning of your app and you leave it in (forever), and use Topic Definition Providers to provide the listener specifications. These are easy to use via the pub.addTopicDefnProvider(). 3. Use it as in #1 during app development, and once stable, use #2. This is easiest to do in combination with pub.exportTopicTreeSpec().

Raises ListenerMismatchError if listener isn't compatible with the topic's MDS. Returns (pubsub.core.Listener, success), where success is False if listener was already subscribed. The pub.core.Listener wraps the callable subscribed and provides introspection-based info about the callable. Extra keyword arguments are treated as currying of listener arguments. Example: pub.subscribe(listener1, 'some_topic') pub.subscribe(listener2, 'some_other_topic', a=2, b=3) In the second example, the listener2 will always receive a=2 and b=3 and pubsub treats it as though a and b were curried, i.e. as if the actual listener subscribed were a callable that did not have a or b parameters. Hence if some_other_topic has a or b as message data, subscription will raise a ListenerInadequate error.
