Well, if I have it surrounded by a try/except block, presumably I'm aware that an exception could be raised. ;) And if I'm aware that an exception could be raised, it may also be possible that I want to change the exception -- leading to the three possibilities I described earlier. Looking through my dbf module, most of those re-raises I'll be changing to use the raise ... from ... syntax, but there are still a couple places where it makes no sense to have the extra nested information available. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6210> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
