Hallo Alltogether, I've searched in this mailing list, but it seems to me that there is no general approach to pass exceptions from one thread to another.
I think most application do a unique way of handling "unhandled exceptions", at least they (should) try to log them. The following discussion seems to me most valuable (Sorry for the long URL, I don't know a way of shorter) http://groups.google.de/group/comp.lang.python/browse_frm/thread/a2ebb2a2f611779b/4b820c20ff3fcea8?lnk=gst&q=%2Bexception+%2Bthread&rnum=6&hl=de#4b820c20ff3fcea8 http://groups.google.de/group/comp.lang.python/browse_frm/thread/2c61c06795f525f3/348a8d9e85883fe3?lnk=gst&q=pass+%2Bexception+%2Bthread&rnum=1&hl=de#348a8d9e85883fe3 I've the feeling that if you're using the python class threading.Thread you've a unique interface of handling it. (thread synchronizing + exception raising) But' when you've a C++ extension, that uses it's own thread implementation and your exceptions happens in python code (but from a thread that is controlled by your extension) you have another problem. Maybe I've overseen something in the python docu, so I ask for the solutions, concepts, hints ... you solved the problem. Regards Alexander -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
