New submission from Guido van Rossum: I just noticed that StreamHandler contains the following fragment in its emit() method:
try: <do some writing> except (KeyboardInterrupt, SystemExit): #pragma: no cover raise except: self.handleError(record) Couldn't this be simplified to the following? try: <do some writing> except Exception: self.handleError(record) I.e. instead of manually catching and re-raising a few BaseExceptions, just don't catch anything that derives from BaseException but not from Exception? (I noticed because we have an internal clone of this class that occasionally gets augmented with yet another base exception that shouldn't be handled. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 172087 nosy: gvanrossum priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Possible simplification for logging.StreamHandler exception handling type: behavior versions: Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16141> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
