Excellent. I was not aware of the PyCObject type. > Accessing those attributes isn't as easy as doing exc->field, but I think > it's easy enough.

In the docs about subclassing, they use a PyListObject as the first field of the Shoddy struct so that the fields are filled in correctly. Now, how would I go about adding methods to a custom exception object? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
