It should behave similarly to return and swallow the exception. In your example this would result in an infinite loop. Alternately the behavior of return should be changed, and the below code would no longer work as it does today. >>> def foo(): ... try: raise Exception ... finally: return 'Done' ... >>> foo() 'Done' Michael -- Michael Urman http://www.tortall.net/mu/blog _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
