Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:
Even in 2.5, __str__ is allowed to return a Unicode object;
we could change BaseException_str this way:
Index: exceptions.c

--- exceptions.c (revision 61957)
+++ exceptions.c (working copy)

break;
case 1:
out = PyObject_Str(PyTuple_GET_ITEM(self->args, 0));
+ if (out == NULL &&
PyErr_ExceptionMatches(PyExc_UnicodeEncodeError))
+ {
+ PyErr_Clear();
+ out = PyObject_Unicode(PyTuple_GET_ITEM(self->args, 0));
+ }
break;
default:
out = PyObject_Str(self->args);
Then str(e) still raises UnicodeEncodeError,
but unicode(e) returns the original message.
But I would like the opinion of an experimented core developer...
