Exceptions on delete in pysqlite

[Wildemar Wildenburger]

Hi there,

Using pysqlite, I'd like to check if some dataset that I removed has
been in the database at all. Ideally I'd like pysqlite to raise an
Exception if deleting does nothing. Is that possible?

Codewise, I'd like the following, but without me checking for and
raising the exception myself:

cur = con.execute("""DELETE FROM SomeTable WHERE id=? AND name=?""",
(ID, NAME))
if cur.rowcount == 0:
raise Exception
