Nick Coghlan added the comment: Thinking about it a bit further, I suspect implicit normalisation of chained exceptions could cause problems when we only want to set __cause__ without setting __context__ (e.g. codec exception chaining).
I'm going to ponder this one for a while, but happy to hear anyone else's feedback. At the very least, I think the C API docs could use a bit more clarity on the intricacies of C level exception chaining. ---------- assignee: -> ncoghlan _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23188> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
