Hello, I'd like to catch all exeptions and be able to inspect them.
The simple case: I know which exceptions I'll get: # standard textbook example: try: something() except ThisException, e: print "some error occurred: ", str(e) The not-so-simple case: Handling all other exceptions: # nice-to-have: try: something() except *, e: print "some error occurred: ", type(e), str(e) Well, actually the second statement doesn't even compile... any ideas why I shouldn't be able to catch "anonymous" exceptions like this, or whether and how I can (and only overlooked it)? TIA! Kind Regards, Toni -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
