I'm trying to fix up the exceptions for the _sqlite3 module I'm implementing. The dbapi spec (PEP 249) requires a very specific exception hierarchy, including exceptions derived from StandardError.
My initial version just used C# Exception classes, but StandardError is not a normal class, so that was insufficient. I looked into how the existing modules did it (using PythonContext.EnsureModuleException) and started to implement that but I've run up against a bit of a roadblock: PythonExceptions.CreateThrowable is internal. It's not a problem for anything in IronPython.Modules, of course, because of the accursed InternalsVisibleToAttribute, but that doesn't help me much :). Is there a public way to create and throw a Python exception (i.e. a BaseException instance)? For now I'm just using reflection, but I would like a better way. On a related note, there's too much stuff that's used in IronPython.Modules but is internal in IronPython - it makes it hard to figure out the "proper" (public) way to do things. - Jeff _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.ironpython.com http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com
