I am using Boost.Python quite extensively (even stretching it to the limit in some cases). Now I cave this problem:
Is there any way to intercept uncaught exception in embedded Python code?
I need to add some information to an exception/traceback in this case. I have full control over environment before embedded code is executed.
I thought I'll be able to use sys.excepthook, but it does not seem to be invoked.
Alternatively I'd can live if I can somehow retrieve the context of failed call (global/local dict?) in boost::python::error_already_set handler.
Boost.Python throws error_already_set exception in case PyErr_Occurred() is true, and here PyErr functions kick in. Perhaps PyErr_Fetch() and PyErr_Restore() are what you're looking for? http://docs.python.org/py3k/c-api/exceptions.html HTH
