Hi,
I like python because it is compatible to old versions. That's way I think
string exceptions should not be deprecated.
I use string exceptions if the condition for an assertion is
to complex:
if foo and bar and i>10:
raise "if foo and bar i must not be greater than 10"
This way I can easily add "checkpoints" to my code.
Is it too late to change this? Way not make this line
raise "..."
behave like this:
raise Exception("...")
in the future?
I know that catching string exceptions and reading the
string is different from Exception("..."). This could
become deprecated.
Please keep Python compatible to old versions.
