Let's say for instance I put the (Python equivalent?) of a "throw" statement
in my Python code. When I run it in debug mode in my VS environment, and
that code throws an exception, the debugger should give me a complete
hierarchical chain of the calling context. Including the containing C++
code.
If it doesn't, if I have to guess what was called and what all the C++ stack
and object variables currently are, that's stupid.
Things like this are what I mean by "integration." I shouldn't have to care
that Python is a different programming language.
