Hello

I have subclassed code.InteractiveInterpreter for testing
an "interpreter" i have written myself.

The interpreter is a function (evaluate) that can raise
MyError exceptions. I want these to be reported with an
indication of the position (^) as in the python interactive
interpreter.

The code below does this, but I don't like the raise-catch
of the syntax error before using self.showsyntaxerror().
How could I improve this? Should I subclass from SyntaxError?

The other thing is that the ^ is shown to the left of the
faulty character, I could easily correct that, but why is this?

import code

class MyError(Exception):
    def __init__(self, msg, pos):
        Exception.__init__(self, msg)
        self.pos = pos

def evaluate(source):
    for (pos,c) in enumerate(source):
        if not c in "0123456789":
            raise MyError("Unexpected Symbol %s" % c, pos)
    return int(source)

class MyConsole(code.InteractiveConsole):
    def raw_input(self, prompt):
        return code.InteractiveConsole.raw_input(self, 'abc '+prompt)

    def runsource(self, source, filename='<stdin>'):
        try:
            print evaluate(source)
        except MyError, e:
            try:
                se = SyntaxError(str(e), ('', 1, e.pos, source))
                raise se
            except:
                self.showsyntaxerror()


if __name__ == '__main__':
    MyConsole().interact()
