Why do you think so? Can you give me an use case of sys.setsegfaultenabled()? Extract of my email on python-dev: Use case: when a program crashs, the user reruns its application with the fault handler enabled and tries to reproduce the crash. He/She can send the Python backtrace to the developer, or use it directly (if he/she understands it). After the discussion on python-dev, I don't think that the fault handler should be enabled by default, but only for a single run. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8863> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
