Hi all, Hopefully you guys can help me with my problem. Basically I have a UI program that can "save" information. The UI passes the save to the controller and the controller saves a file and does some post processing. If saving the file fails, I want to handle the error differently than if the error was in post processing. In both cases the possible exceptions are varied and unknown so I cannot pick and choose certain exception. The problem with the sample program below is that the stack trace is replaced by the re-raise. What would be the best way(s) to get the original stack trace in save_from_UI if the exception occurs in post_process? Using Python 2.6 and Windows(XP and 7) / Linux.
Def save_from_model(): save() # do not catch exception (could be any exception) try: post_process() except Exception as e: #do something raise CustomException() # "wrap" exception so bar knows to handle it differently def save_from_UI(): try: foo() except CustomException() as e: # How do I get the original stacktrace instead of the reraise? except Exception as e: # do something else with this exception Ramit Ramit Prasad | JPMorgan Chase Investment Bank | Currencies Technology 712 Main Street | Houston, TX 77002 work phone: 713 - 216 - 5423 This email is confidential and subject to important disclaimers and conditions including on offers for the purchase or sale of securities, accuracy and completeness of information, viruses, confidentiality, legal privilege, and legal entity disclaimers, available at http://www.jpmorgan.com/pages/disclosures/email. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
