But in my case the "goodbye" function is deleting the logging file
which was created during the application execution. Now the problem
is that it *always* executes, even when the applications quits for
some bad errors.
Is there a way to have an exit hook, which doesn't execute in case of
errors?
Have a single no-error normal exit point.
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
cleanup()
if you really want to exit by exceptions rather than by returns,
if __name__ == '__main__':
try: main()
except SystemExit: normal_exit_cleanup()
