Hi all,
We would like to request feedback on PEP 654 -- Exception Groups and except*.
It proposes language extensions that allow programs to raise and handle multiple unrelated
exceptions simultaneously, motivated by the needs of asyncio and other concurrency libraries,
but with other use cases as well.
* A new standard exception type,
ExceptionGroup, to represent multiple exceptions with
shared traceback.
* Updates to the traceback printing code to display (possibly nested) ExceptionGroups.
* A new syntax except* for handling ExceptionGroups.
A reference implementation (unreviewed) can be found at:
Kind regards
Irit, Yury & Guido
