New submission from Orson Peters: According to the documentation of sys.tracebacklimit, setting it to 0 or less would assure "all traceback information is suppressed and only the exception type and value are printed".
This is not the case: $ python -c "import sys; sys.tracebacklimit = 0; raise Exception()" Exception $ python3 -c "import sys; sys.tracebacklimit = 0; raise Exception()" Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> Exception ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 225055 nosy: orlp priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: sys.tracebacklimit = 0 does not work as documented in 3.x versions: Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4, Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22169> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
