Nick Coghlan added the comment: I've been looking into this further, and a reproducer that's independent of assertRaises() is to just bind the function to a local variable name in an outer function:
def outer(): callable_obj = f try: callable_obj() except Exception as exc: return exc That should make it easier to test a basic recursive "clear_all_frames" operation like: def clear_all_frames(exc): cause = exc.__cause__ if cause is not None: clear_all_frames(cause) context = exc.__context__ if context is not None: clear_all_frames(context) traceback.clear_frames(exc.__traceback__) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23890> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
