Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com> added the comment:
The default handler writes the message of non-integer code to stderr, but in case of '--help', the message should be written to stdout. So this feature is not applicable for it. Are there other examples where this feature can be used? In such cases it is better to write the message explicitly and call sys.exit() with the required exit code. For tests you can use contextlib.redirect_stderr() (or manually replace sys.stderr) to capture the stderr output. ---------- nosy: +serhiy.storchaka _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36691> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
