I've came upon this problem as well. I had some (bad) API I had to work with. It always raised the same exception with the only difference in the message. So I thought I could do something like this: def message_contains(msg): class _MyExc(object): def __instancecheck__(self, exc): return msg in exc.args[0] return _MyExc But after I tried it in number of different ways I found out that it's not possible. So here's another reason to change this behavior. ---------- nosy: +yorik.sar _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12029> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
