Looks like they'll be getting exceptions "soon": http://groups.google.com/group/android-ndk/browse_thread/thread/89db67ed1fbf6450/4de3dd6105eb26ce?#4de3dd6105eb26ce But yeah, thanks for the concrete example, and I'd agree that Python should compile with -fno-exceptions, for a couple more years at least. _______________________________________________ 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
