Probably I've not completely understood the C-function exception-propagating mechanism. I've a function with a prototype like this
void* getItem( void* self, int i ) The function returns the i-th item in self. Some index and bounds checking are implemented, so if, for example, I specify a negative index or an index out of self bounds I raise and exception. In cython the function is declared in this way: cdef void* getItem( void* self, int i ) except NULL But when an error occurs and the exception is raised I always receive a message which says that the exception is ignored. Obviously, the function continues its execution and terminates whit a segmentation fault. The question is: how can I propagate to caller functions the raised exception? Thanks for your help (and for the great work that you've done with cython :D ), Daniele _______________________________________________ Cython-dev mailing list [email protected] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/cython-dev
