New submission from Greg Hazel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Unrelated to this bug, I would like to have the ability to remove the reference to the frame from the traceback object. Specifically so that the traceback object could be stored for a while without keeping all the locals alive as well.
So, periodically I test to see if python allows that. Python 2.6 gave some strange results compared to 2.5.2: Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Feb 21 2008, 13:11:45) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> try: ... x = dskjfds ... except: ... import sys ... t, v, tb = sys.exc_info() ... >>> tb <traceback object at 0x01396670> >>> dir(tb) ['tb_frame', 'tb_lasti', 'tb_lineno', 'tb_next'] >>> tb.tb_frame <frame object at 0x01371598> >>> tb.tb_frame = None Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: 'traceback' object has only read-only attributes (assign to .tb_frame) >>> Python 2.6 (r26:66721, Oct 2 2008, 11:35:03) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> try: ... x = lfdskf ... except: ... import sys ... t, v, tb = sys.exc_info() ... >>> tb <traceback object at 0x01581F80> >>> dir(tb) ['tb_frame', 'tb_lasti', 'tb_lineno', 'tb_next'] >>> tb.tb_frame <frame object at 0x013B9E10> >>> tb.tb_frame = None Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: 'traceback' object has no attribute 'tb_frame' >>> ---------- messages: 74282 nosy: ghazel severity: normal status: open title: traceback attribute error type: behavior versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4034> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
