New submission from Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettin...@gmail.com>:
Currently, an XMLRPC client communicating with a server running Python can make
Python style calls but exceptions get collapsed into a standard FaultException
making it difficult to program in a Pythonic style:
proxy = xmlrpc.client.ServerProxy("http://localhost:8000/";)
try:
value = proxy.lookup('somekey')
except xmlrpc.client.Fault as err:
if err.faultCode == 1 and 'KeyError' in err.faultString:
k = re.search(r":.(\w+)' not found$", err.faultString).groups(1)
raise KeyError(k)
It would be better if we could do this automatically (search for a pure python
exception of the same name and raise it instead of a Fault):
proxy = xmlrpc.client.ServerProxy("http://localhost:8000/";,
python_exceptions=True)
try:
value = proxy.lookup('somekey')
except KeyError as e:
