Trying to debug message undefined error

[phil-warner]

We've had a handful of uncaught exceptions in our application. The error stack is shown below. It's quite hard to pin it down using the node uncaughtException handler, as we only have access to the error and not the parameters of the request. Does this suggest anything to you guys?

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'message')

This is the non-string short_message crash (Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'message')). Fixed in node-smpp-next — the encode filter coerces scalars and guards null/undefined (also covers #229), with a regression test.
