Andreas Stührk <andy-pyt...@hammerhartes.de> added the comment: I really doubt that this issue has anything to do with `sys.excepthook` at all. It's rather that module members are set to `None` during module cleanup. Because the module raises an exception when one tries to import it, it will be cleaned up immediately (see `PyImport_ExecCodeModuleEx`: it calls `remove_module` which will call at some point `_PyModule_Clear`). At the time when `sys.excepthook` is called, all module members are already set to `None`.
One can easily demonstrate that this is really the problem by removing the exception raise in your example code: If one then imports "loggingTest" in an interactive session and raises an exception, the expected behaviour can be observed. Another workaround is to bind `logger` as a default argument (i.e. ``def handleException(excType, excValue, traceback, logger=logger):``). ---------- nosy: +Trundle _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11705> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
