jitudon

The logger objects findCaller() method is returning a "3" element
tuple instead of "2" two as
documented in the 2.4.4 Python Library Reference .DocString is showing
it correctly.

findCaller()

filename and line number as a 2-element tuple.

I've updated the docs - the next 2.4.x release should have them.
Thanks for the report.

Thanks for the report.

Is a further 2.4 release planned?

I'd have thought that unless a security issue appears the answer is
likely to be "no".

You never know - and it didn't take long to commit the change to
release24-maint, so why not?!
