[Python-Dev] unicode Exception messages in py2.7 (original) (raw)

Hi,

FWIW, the pure Python traceback.py module has a slightly different (and saner) behavior:

e = Exception(u"xx\u1234yy") traceback.printexception(Exception, e, None) Exception: xx\u1234yy

I'd suggest that the behavior of the two should be unified anyway. The traceback module uses value.encode("ascii", "backslashreplace") for any unicode object.

A bientôt,

Armin.
