I think I've been misunderstood. Sorry, I'll try to put this another way ... the Python exception handling reports the exception to logs, which is particularly useful for diagnosing a cause ... but if the exception is handled as Ivan's change does, then the cause is not logged. I'm not saying we have no logs, I'm saying we will have no *useful* logs. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
