By default, uncaught exceptions stop the execution of python scripts (similar to what bash does when -e us set.)
I need to change this behavior, so that the user gets informed about the uncaught exception, but the program continues (like +e in bash).
Reason:
While a programmer can do his best and wrap almost every function into a try... except... statement, there is always the possibility that one forgets such a wrapping. Also, wrapping every line of code in a try... except... statement adds a lot of bloat to the application.
Another reason:
I want to create a GUI application that should display any(!) errors that might occur in a GUI dialog box, rather than "hard crashing" (printing a stack trace and exception to stdout). Simply wrapping the entire main() into a try... except statement would not do the trick because in the case of an error, I could display the error message but I see no apparent way to continue the execution of the GUI app.
So here is some code to make my question more concrete:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import os, sys
print "One"
print "Two" + 1
print "Three"
# Desired output:
#
# One
# An error occured: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'int' objects -- but we are continuing anyway
# Three
# What i do NOT want my code to look like:
# try... except... try... except...
# Perhaps something like the following code can help achieve this goal?
def excepthook(exct ype, value, traceback):
"""Prints only the error message as opposed to the full traceback"""
print str(value)
pass
sys.excepthook = excepthook
# BUT HOW CAN I MAKE THIS CONTINUE EXECUTION?

I have a list in a particular order that I want to split into two
lists: the list of every nth item, and the list of remaining items.
It's important to maintain the original order in both lists.
So the first list is simple:

Hi All,
I am not sure if I should be asking this question on clc or clc++. Let me try on
both. I hope that this is not too trivial for the brilliant minds over here.
I know that OOP questions have been asked on clc before so it is probably OK.

Hi,
I'm getting into the Trace-functionality in .NET, using it to provide some
much-needed logging across dlls in the project we're working on. However,
being a newbie, I'm wondering if some more experienced loggers can provide
me with some ideas as to how to log in a simple yet flexible manner. For
instance, I'd like the code to be as uncluttered as possible by Trace
statements.
As an example of basic logging functionality, I've come...

I am attempting to handle errors by using Application_Error. This seems to
work fine in most situations. However, if the exception occurs during the
Application_Start method, the stand error screen is displayed and my custom
error handling in Application_Error does not run.
Why does this occur, and is there something I can do to cause
Application_Error to be automatically invoked during an Application_Start
exception?

I built a generic exception handler form which allows the user to get
information from it, print it, email it, etc. for exceptions for which I
explicitly didn't handle in code, such as missing permissions on a stored
procedure, etc. I use this exception handler in all of my applications and
it can be called as simply as follows

catch ex as sqlexception

When I right a class, I am wondering what are the best practices for error

That being the case do I just not catch it and let the user of the class

is one of the few things that quickly speak about the quality of code.
