More verbose traceback

[Thomas Guettler]

Hi!

Has someone written a script which
dumps a traceback in a more verbose style?

This should include the information you
see with cgitb. I like this very much.

You see the values of the important variables
in the traceback. I need something like
this, but it should be plain ascii, not html.

I beleive there's a patch on SF (to cgitb) that does this.

Hi,
I'm working to a tool which collects all informations related to
a traceback object a saves them in XML format. There is also a
graphical program you can use to analyze dump files created by this
tool. It's name is PyCrash and you can find it at

http://pycrash.sourceforge.net

I hope that it will be useful for you.

Have a look at the formatTraceback function in the util.py module of Pyro.
(http://pyro.sourceforge.net) It prints tracebacks like this:

[IdJ] d:\>python test.py
--------------------------------------------------
<exceptions.Zer oDivisionError> RAISED : integer division or modulo by zero
Extended Stacktrace follows (most recent call last)
--------------------------------------------------
File "test.py", line (15), in ?
Source code:
funcB("hello")
File "test.py", line (11), in funcB
Source code:
result=funcA(1)
Local values:
localB = 'inside B'
--------------------------------------------------
File "test.py", line (7), in funcA
Source code:
print arg/0
Local values:
arg = 1
localA = 999
--------------------------------------------------
<exceptions.Zer oDivisionError> RAISED : integer division or modulo by zero
--------------------------------------------------


when used as follows:

try:
...something...
except:
print "".join(Pyro.ut il.formatTraceb ack( *sys.exc_info() ))

I'm pretty sure this was integrated into 2.3; cgitb has a text function, at least.

Ah, OK. I recall some discussion about how the patch wasn't really
The Right Thing(tm), but noone had the time do The Right Thing(tm) and
whether it should just be checked in anyway but not the outcome.
Looks like it went in.

Cheers,
