I'm going to close this issue because it's not a bug. I understand your question now, as well as the source of your confusion: you thought that traceback is "the thing that is printed to the screen when an exception is raised" and that __traceback__ is something that controls how it's printed. Those are two misunderstandings and I can see why you thought, on that basis, that there is a bug. The traceback is only part of what is printed to the screen when an exception is raised, and the __traceback__ field of an exception is a pointer to the actual traceback data. ---------- resolution: -> not a bug status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue30384> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
