New submission from Floris Bruynooghe <floris.bruynoo...@gmail.com>:
The description of how to best use exceptions is slightly confusing and led me to believe there was an issue when using open() as a context manager. The main issue is that the wording seems to suggest the example above it is the best and not the very last. Attached is a patch which uses a slightly different wording which IMHO makes it clearer that the with-statement is the preferred method and does not introduce subtle bugs. ---------- assignee: d...@python components: Documentation files: doandont.diff keywords: patch messages: 113949 nosy: d...@python, flub priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Re-phrase best way of using exceptions in doanddont.rst type: feature request versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file18538/doandont.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9608> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
