\section{Built-in Exceptions}
|
|
|
|
\declaremodule{standard}{exceptions}
|
|
\modulesynopsis{Standard exception classes.}
|
|
|
|
|
|
Exceptions should be class objects.
|
|
The exceptions are defined in the module \module{exceptions}. This
|
|
module never needs to be imported explicitly: the exceptions are
|
|
provided in the built-in namespace as well as the \module{exceptions}
|
|
module.
|
|
|
|
For class exceptions, in a \keyword{try}\stindex{try} statement with
|
|
an \keyword{except}\stindex{except} clause that mentions a particular
|
|
class, that clause also handles any exception classes derived from
|
|
that class (but not exception classes from which \emph{it} is
|
|
derived). Two exception classes that are not related via subclassing
|
|
are never equivalent, even if they have the same name.
|
|
|
|
The built-in exceptions listed below can be generated by the
|
|
interpreter or built-in functions. Except where mentioned, they have
|
|
an ``associated value'' indicating the detailed cause of the error.
|
|
This may be a string or a tuple containing several items of
|
|
information (e.g., an error code and a string explaining the code).
|
|
The associated value is the second argument to the
|
|
\keyword{raise}\stindex{raise} statement. If the exception class is
|
|
derived from the standard root class \exception{BaseException}, the
|
|
associated value is present as the exception instance's \member{args}
|
|
attribute.
|
|
|
|
User code can raise built-in exceptions. This can be used to test an
|
|
exception handler or to report an error condition ``just like'' the
|
|
situation in which the interpreter raises the same exception; but
|
|
beware that there is nothing to prevent user code from raising an
|
|
inappropriate error.
|
|
|
|
The built-in exception classes can be sub-classed to define new
|
|
exceptions; programmers are encouraged to at least derive new
|
|
exceptions from the \exception{Exception} class and not
|
|
\exception{BaseException}. More
|
|
information on defining exceptions is available in the
|
|
\citetitle[../tut/tut.html]{Python Tutorial} under the heading
|
|
``User-defined Exceptions.''
|
|
|
|
\setindexsubitem{(built-in exception base class)}
|
|
|
|
The following exceptions are only used as base classes for other
|
|
exceptions.
|
|
|
|
\begin{excdesc}{BaseException}
|
|
The base class for all built-in exceptions. It is not meant to be directly
|
|
inherited by user-defined classes (for that use \exception{Exception}). If
|
|
\function{str()} or \function{unicode()} is called on an instance of this
|
|
class, the representation of the argument(s) to the instance are returned or
|
|
the emptry string when there were no arguments. All arguments are
|
|
stored in \member{args} as a tuple.
|
|
\versionadded{2.5}
|
|
\end{excdesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{excdesc}{Exception}
|
|
All built-in, non-system-exiting exceptions are derived
|
|
from this class. All user-defined exceptions should also be derived
|
|
from this class.

\begin{excdesc}{ArithmeticError}
|
|
The base class for those built-in exceptions that are raised for
|
|
various arithmetic errors: \exception{OverflowError},
|
|
\exception{ZeroDivisionError}, \exception{FloatingPointError}.
|
|
\end{excdesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{excdesc}{LookupError}
|
|
The base class for the exceptions that are raised when a key or
|
|
index used on a mapping or sequence is invalid: \exception{IndexError},
|
|
\exception{KeyError}. This can be raised directly by
|
|
\function{sys.setdefaultencoding()}.
|
|
\end{excdesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{excdesc}{EnvironmentError}
|
|
The base class for exceptions that
|
|
can occur outside the Python system: \exception{IOError},
|
|
\exception{OSError}. When exceptions of this type are created with a
|
|
2-tuple, the first item is available on the instance's \member{errno}
|
|
attribute (it is assumed to be an error number), and the second item
|
|
is available on the \member{strerror} attribute (it is usually the
|
|
associated error message). The tuple itself is also available on the
|
|
\member{args} attribute.
|
|
\versionadded{1.5.2}
|
|
|
|
When an \exception{EnvironmentError} exception is instantiated with a
|
|
3-tuple, the first two items are available as above, while the third
|
|
item is available on the \member{filename} attribute. However, for
|
|
backwards compatibility, the \member{args} attribute contains only a
|
|
2-tuple of the first two constructor arguments.
|
|
|
|
The \member{filename} attribute is \code{None} when this exception is
|
|
created with other than 3 arguments. The \member{errno} and
|
|
\member{strerror} attributes are also \code{None} when the instance was
|
|
created with other than 2 or 3 arguments. In this last case,
|
|
\member{args} contains the verbatim constructor arguments as a tuple.

\begin{excdesc}{MemoryError}
|
|
Raised when an operation runs out of memory but the situation may
|
|
still be rescued (by deleting some objects). The associated value is
|
|
a string indicating what kind of (internal) operation ran out of memory.
|
|
Note that because of the underlying memory management architecture
|
|
(C's \cfunction{malloc()} function), the interpreter may not
|
|
always be able to completely recover from this situation; it
|
|
nevertheless raises an exception so that a stack traceback can be
|
|
printed, in case a run-away program was the cause.
|

|
|
|
|
\begin{excdesc}{NameError}

\begin{excdesc}{NotImplementedError}

\begin{excdesc}{OverflowError}
|
|
% XXXJH reference to long's and/or int's?
|
|
Raised when the result of an arithmetic operation is too large to be
|
|
represented. This cannot occur for long integers (which would rather
|
|
raise \exception{MemoryError} than give up). Because of the lack of
|
|
standardization of floating point exception handling in C, most
|
|
floating point operations also aren't checked. For plain integers,
|
|
all operations that can overflow are checked except left shift, where
|
|
typical applications prefer to drop bits than raise an exception.
|

\end{excdesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{excdesc}{ReferenceError}
|
|
This exception is raised when a weak reference proxy, created by the
|
|
\function{\refmodule{weakref}.proxy()} function, is used to access
|
|
an attribute of the referent after it has been garbage collected.
|
|

\begin{excdesc}{RuntimeError}

more.)

|
\begin{excdesc}{SyntaxError}
|
|
% XXXJH xref to these functions?
|
|
Raised when the parser encounters a syntax error. This may occur in
|
|
an \keyword{import} statement, in a call to the built-in functions
|
|
\function{exec()}, \function{execfile()}, \function{eval()} or
|
|
\function{input()}, or when reading the initial script or standard
|
|
input (also interactively).
|
|
|
|
Instances of this class have attributes \member{filename},
|
|
\member{lineno}, \member{offset} and \member{text} for easier access
|
|
to the details. \function{str()} of the exception instance returns
|
|
only the message.
|
|
\end{excdesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{excdesc}{SystemError}
|
|
Raised when the interpreter finds an internal error, but the
|
|
situation does not look so serious to cause it to abandon all hope.
|
|
The associated value is a string indicating what went wrong (in
|
|
low-level terms).
|
|
|
|
You should report this to the author or maintainer of your Python
|
|
interpreter. Be sure to report the version of the Python
|
|
interpreter (\code{sys.version}; it is also printed at the start of an
|
|
interactive Python session), the exact error message (the exception's
|
|
associated value) and if possible the source of the program that
|
|
triggered the error.
|
|
\end{excdesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{excdesc}{SystemExit}
|
|
% XXX(hylton) xref to module sys?
|
|
This exception is raised by the \function{sys.exit()} function. When it
|
|
is not handled, the Python interpreter exits; no stack traceback is
|
|
printed. If the associated value is a plain integer, it specifies the
|
|
system exit status (passed to C's \cfunction{exit()} function); if it is
|
|
\code{None}, the exit status is zero; if it has another type (such as
|
|
a string), the object's value is printed and the exit status is one.
|
|
|
|
Instances have an attribute \member{code} which is set to the
|
|
proposed exit status or error message (defaulting to \code{None}).
|
|
Also, this exception derives directly from \exception{BaseException} and
|
|
not \exception{Exception}, since it is not technically an error.
|
|
|
|
A call to \function{sys.exit()} is translated into an exception so that
|
|
clean-up handlers (\keyword{finally} clauses of \keyword{try} statements)
|
|
can be executed, and so that a debugger can execute a script without
|
|
running the risk of losing control. The \function{os._exit()} function
|
|
can be used if it is absolutely positively necessary to exit
|
|
immediately (for example, in the child process after a call to
|
|
\function{fork()}).
|
|
|
|
The exception inherits from \exception{BaseException} instead of
|
|
\exception{Exception} so that it is not
|
|
accidentally caught by code that catches \exception{Exception}. This allows
|
|
the exception to properly propagate up and cause the interpreter to exit.

return values of the \cfunction{GetLastError()} and

\cfunction{FormatMessage()} functions from the Windows Platform API.
