Actually, the proposals you made almost subsume PEPs 288 and 325. All you'd need to do is: 1. move the '__del__' code to a 'close()' method and make __del__ call close() 2. make '_inject_exception()' a public API that returns the next yielded value if the exception doesn't propagate And just like that you've cleaned up the open issues from both 288 and 325, IIRC those open issues correctly. I personally think that StopIteration, TerminateIteration, KeyboardInterrupt and perhaps certain other exceptions should derive from some base class other than Exception (e.g. Raisable or some such) to help with the bare-except/except Exception problem. But that's probably best addressed by a separate PEP. :) _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
