Heyas So this probably highlights my lack of understanding of how naming works in python, but I'm currently using FailUnlessRaises in a unit test and raising exceptions with a string exception. It's working pretty well, except that I get the deprecation warning that raising a string exception is going to go away. So my question is, how do I mangle the name of my exception class enough that it doesnt stick the name of the module before the name of the exception?
Namely I'd like to get the following *** Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? MyError: 'oops!' instead of *** Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? __main__.MyError: 'oops!' (or even test_thingie.MyError as is usually the case). Creating a class in a separate file and then doing *** from module import MyError raise MyError still gives *** Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> module.MyError Anyway, any help appreciated. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
