Look at sys.excepthook in the sys module in the Python Library Reference
docs.. Define an exception handler:
# 3 arguments required
def yourExceptionHandler (a,b,c):
print "*** got exception ***"
and beofre starting the event loop do:
sys.excepthook = yourExceptionHandler
The sys..excepthook method (which is now pointed to "yourExceptionHandler")
gets all unhandled exceptions.
You could, for example, define a method that pops up the KMessageBox as part
of your KMainWindow subclass, and then call that method from
"yourExceptionHandler".
An easy test is to define a button that attempts division by zero when clicked
- "yourExceptionHandler" should get called when you click the button, and
whatever you code that to do should then happen.
