hello,
For several reasons I still use Python version 2.5.
I understand that the print-statement will be replaced in Python
version 3.0.
At the moment I want to extend the print statement with an optional
traceback.
So I've 2 options:
1- make a new function, like "eprint ()", where "e" stands for
extended print
2- make a function "print()" that has the extended features
There is a 3rd option: hook yourself in the output stream and just
climb the call stack in the write() method. This works (done that
myself for easy debugging)
The other way if you want to selectively do so, either use
a form of log (because why must it be print if the output
is debugging information?) or instead of hooking sys.stdout,
use another output stream and print >>debug, ... to it.
thanks guys,
for the moment I'll stick to another name "v3print" so it can easily be
replaced.
The third option (by Tino) looks interesting,
but is not suitable in my case,
because the program I'm writing is a kind of IDE (Integrated Development
Environment),
where the user can create programs, and must have full control over stdout.
cheers,
Stef
