yes... yes... I know that... > I don't think it implies that you shouldn't raise an exception, after > all raising an exception is valid Python code. But that's not the point for documentation and examples of how to use something like Django... the docs and examples should show how to do it right -- or at least the expected way to do something or a "good" way to do it. I maintain that just not saving and doing nothing is not an example of how one should handle such a case. Unless an example shows raising an exception in this case, one might, not unreasonably, think that perhaps one should never raise an exception at that point in the process (e.g. "gee, it's too late to raise an exception, Django must expect me to let the user know in my view instead of in the model"). -- Glenn --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
