Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: Error messages are already silenced if sys.stderr is None or closed.
>>> sys.stderr.close() >>> 1/0 >>> >>> sys.stderr = None >>> 1/0 >>> I think that such things as _Errbox are application level solutions. report_callback_exception() is designed to be overwritten for this purpose. Application can decide to pop up message box always, not only when sys.stderr is None, or tracebacks to a log, or add application icon and scrollbar on message box, or output error on special area on main windows. Definitely it would be good to add something like _Errbox to IDLE. But this will be other issue. This issue is only about "crashing" of default implementation, and if my patch fixes it, I want to commit it and close the issue. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22384> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
