New submission from Maxime Belanger <m...@dropbox.com>:
We have found `_PyErr_Display` to be quite helpful in embedding situations, in particular as a way to capture errors to a custom buffer rather than to `stderr`. Otherwise, embedders often have to replicate logic in `PyErr_Print`, etc. Since the header restructuring in Python 3.8+, that function is a bit harder to call. It's exported, but is considered "internal" and thus requires defining `Py_BUILD_CORE`. I was wondering: why not expose it under "Include/cpython"? It seems like a generic-enough helper, similar to `_PyErr_WriteUnraisableMsg`. ---------- components: C API messages: 387965 nosy: Maxime Belanger priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: _PyErr_Display should be available in the CPython-specific API type: enhancement versions: Python 3.10 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43377> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
