Steve Dower <steve.do...@python.org> added the comment: > GetLastError() docs officially scare us
I believe this is a case where the docs were updated from intended/correct behavior to actual behavior, which happens from time to time and is never clearly marked. As I say, they are _supposed_ to leave the error unchanged unless they return a value that indicates an error occurred, but some APIs behave incorrectly. The docs are simply documenting that fact. (It turns out reality is more useful than fantasy ;) though I do wish they were clearer about that) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33030> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
