In fact, we have already updated the
tutorial with the instructions how to use IP with standard Python libraries.
While this change didn’t make it
into our Beta 9 release, the latest package available on codeplex (http://www.codeplex.com) does include the updated
tutorial.

Perhaps there should be a discussion of whether the IronPython
distribution should (could) include the standard CPython 2.4 libraries that are
needed to give the "full" Python experience.
Perhaps your tutorial should tell people how to install CPython (it is, after
all, trivial), if there's a reason that the standard libraries shouldn't go out
with IP.

Ah yeah, my roommate asked me the same
question.
There’s absolutely no reason that I shouldn’t be using the Python
traceback library (and you should use it too). I’m working on a
tutorial for IronPython which I would like to run “out of the box”
(that is, not have the end user install CPython as a dependency of the
tutorial). This is the only reason I was looking for a “pure”
IronPython solution.

Could someone explain to this interested observer what is missing when the
standard Python traceback functionality is used? Writing
IronPython-specific code that isn't specifically involved in interacting with
.Net seems against the "you can run the same Python code anywhere"
notion that I expect to see.
Or did you mean "using the IronPython Engine" (aka "in pure C#
code") when you said "in pure IP"? The sample code, after
all, was Python and not calls to the IronPython Engine....

I’m probably going to just reimplement the functionality in pure
IP. If I get anywhere with it I’ll post it up here.

I would be interested to know how you get on with this problem Lee - I’ve
got the same issue myself.

Yikes. I was hoping for a way to do it in pure IronPython. Thanks
though.

Tracebacks are the correct way to do this, I recommend you install the standard
Python library against IronPython to make this really useful – then you
can do import traceback and use its handy functions (otherwise you’ll be
walking the traceback list in sys.exc_info() which won’t be much fun).

Subject: [IronPython] Getting a
call stack from an exception?
I would like to print out a call stack from an exception object, much like what
the IronPython console does when an exception goes uncaught. I have tried
doing something like this:
try:
… #something that causes an exception
except Exception, e:
print e
But, like python, this only prints out the message given to it. I have
also tried this:
print e.clsException
print e.clsException.StackTrace
But these print out the stack trace which includes the IronPython library c#
code as well. Is there a way to get the stack trace which only contains
the python call stack (like the one the console uses)?
Thanks
