Are you getting a TargetInvocationException and trying to get the stack trace of that? Or is it just some normal exception kind? I'll have to look into why calling FormatException isn't doing the right thing - that info might help...
But anyway, it looks like the Silverlight exception formatter is doing the work it's self - it's just calling .ToString() on the actual .NET exception object. So I guess I've given you the complicated answer and the simple answer is doing str(myException) + '\n' + myException.clsException.ToString(). -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dan Eloff Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2008 5:41 PM To: Discussion of IronPython Subject: Re: [IronPython] How to get a System.Exception inside a IronPython except: clause Thanks Dino, That works. Unfortunately FormatException() doesn't add the CLR stack trace, even if it has been enabled in silverlight. If the exception is on the main thread, and if it isn't thrown by the target of an invokation, and you allow the exception to reach the top of the stack, you can see the CLR stack trace. I guess for now, when I need to see the CLR stack trace, the only way around that is to rearrange code so that those conditions are met. Is there anything that can (should?) be done about that? -Dan On Tue, Jul 8, 2008 at 6:39 PM, Dino Viehland <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > There's a clsException property that we add to Python exceptions that will > give you the CLR Exception for the corresponding Python Exception. > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dan Eloff > Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2008 4:37 PM > To: Discussion of IronPython > Subject: [IronPython] How to get a System.Exception inside a IronPython > except: clause > > This may sound a little similar to some of my other posts on here, the > help I received previously has enabled me to get stuck in new and > exciting areas :) > > The stdlib traceback module can be used to format python exceptions, > but unfortunately it seems to leave out some information, like clr > exception data (thanks Curt and Jimmy for helping me turn that on).
