Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Python Interpreter Core Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Jp Calderone (kuran) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Top-level exception handler writes to stdout unsafely Initial Comment: When an exception reaches the top frame and is displayed by the exception handler, they are handled by formatting them to stderr. This involves a series of calls to PyFile_WriteString, either directly from PyErr_Display or indirectly through PyTraceBack_Print. Few, if any, of these PyFile_WriteString calls have their result checked for error. Worse, PyFile_WriteString itself does not check the return value of fputs(). So, for example, with a signal handler installed, a signal received while a traceback is being printed can result in the traceback _not_ being printed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1598083&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
