New submission from Ned Batchelder: The order of values on the stack is backwards for RAISE_VARARGS. The docs say:
"Raises an exception. argc indicates the number of parameters to the raise statement, ranging from 0 to 3. The handler will find the traceback as TOS2, the parameter as TOS1, and the exception as TOS." But in fact, the order is reverse of that. In the one-parameter case, the exception is TOS, in the two-parameter case, the value is TOS, and in the three-parameter case, the traceback is TOS. Not sure how to write that concisely, thought. :) ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation keywords: easy messages: 199096 nosy: docs@python, nedbat priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: dis module has incorrect docs for RAISE_VARARGS versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19184> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
