It's something that should be scoped at the source file level or lower.  
Otherwise, someone could map Foo exception to PythonFoo exception, someone else 
could map Foo to PythonBar, and some poor slob would be left wondering why the 
first bit of code is suddenly misbehaving.
 
#BeginMapException <CliException1> <PythonException1>
...
    #BeginMapException <CliException2> <PythonException2>
    ...
    #EndMapException <CliException2>
...
#EndMapException <CliException1>
 
#BeginMapException <CliException1> <PythonException3>
...
#EndMapException <CliException1>

It's an extremely interesting idea and one that I personally like.  Being the 
new guy I'll want to hear Jim and Martin's input too :-).

 

Ultimately there's no reason why we couldn't either expose supplementary 
dictionaries that provide for user-defined exception translation or even to 
expose the dictionaries that we use internally (to allow modifying the systems 
defaults).  It also seems like it'd be a great way to keep the exception system 
highly dynamic and give the advanced Python developer more control of it.

 

I'll make sure to make a note of this to see if we can get it included.

Would there be a way to map new exceptions between IP and the CLI?

 

For example, if I create a new Python exception, and want to bind it to 
System.ArgumentException, or convsersely if I create a new CLI exception that I 
want to map to a Python equivalent.  This would be an IronPython-ism, but a 
worthwhile one I think.
