I already know how to make user-defined exceptions, like this one:
class MyException(Exception):
pass
But for a module I'm making, I would like to make a warning (so it just
prints the warning to stderr and doesn't crash the program). I have
tried this:
class MyWarning(Warning):
pass
And it behaves like a normal error. Please help me, I can't figure out
what I'm doing wrong.
Are you using the warning with 'raise'? Don't do that, use warnings.warn
instead:
In [1]: import warnings
In [2]: class MyWarning(Warning): pass
...:
In [3]: warnings.warn(MyWarning("bah humbug"))
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/IPython/FakeModule.py:1:
MyWarning: bah humbug
