Could someone explain to this interested observer what is missing when the standard Python traceback functionality is used?  Writing IronPython-specific code that isn't specifically involved in interacting with .Net seems against the "you can run the same Python code anywhere" notion that I expect to see.

Or did you mean "using the IronPython Engine" (aka "in pure C# code") when you said "in pure IP"?  The sample code, after all, was Python and not calls to the IronPython Engine....

It shouldn’t be too hard to just get the line numbers & filenames – the nice thing that the standard traceback.py file gives you is it can get the lines of source code and include it in the displayed call stack as well.

I’m probably going to just reimplement the functionality in pure IP.  If I get anywhere with it I’ll post it up here.

I would be interested to know how you get on with this problem Lee - I’ve got the same issue myself.

Yikes.  I was hoping for a way to do it in pure IronPython.  Thanks though.

Tracebacks are the correct way to do this, I recommend you install the standard Python library against IronPython to make this really useful – then you can do import traceback and use its handy functions (otherwise you’ll be walking the traceback list in sys.exc_info() which won’t be much fun).

Subject: [IronPython] Getting a call stack from an exception?
 
I would like to print out a call stack from an exception object, much like what the IronPython console does when an exception goes uncaught.  I have tried doing something like this:
 
try:
    … #something that causes an exception
except Exception, e:
    print e
 
But, like python, this only prints out the message given to it.  I have also tried this:
    print e.clsException
    print e.clsException.StackTrace
 
But these print out the stack trace which includes the IronPython library c# code as well.  Is there a way to get the stack trace which only contains the python call stack (like the one the console uses)?
 
Thanks
-Lee
