Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment:
(My initial messages contained a mistaken idea based on a mis-remembering the details sys.last values and exceptions.) If an exception is not caught and a traceback is printed, sys.last_type, sys.last_value, and sys.last_traceback are set. When an exception is caught, the last_ x values are not touched, but the same are available by calling sys.exc_info. Stackview accessed all 3 sys.last_x values, but they are not normally set when testing because exception are caught. The test sets them from a sys.exc_info after catching an exception. ---------- resolution: -> fixed stage: patch review -> resolved status: open -> closed title: IDLE: stackbrowser.Stackbrowser should accept exception. -> IDLE: Test stackbrowser.Stackbrowser type: behavior -> enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33905> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
