getting source code line of error?

[Ulli Horlacher]

I am trying to get the source code line of the last error.
I know traceback.format_exc() but this contains much more information, e.g.:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./error.py", line 18, in main
    x=1/0
ZeroDivisionError: division by zero

I could extract the source code line with re.search(), but is there an
easier way?


I have:

      exc_type,exc_str,exc_tb = sys.exc_info()
      fname = exc_tb.tb_frame.f_code.co_filename
      line = exc_tb.tb_lineno
      print('%s in %s line %d' % (exc_str,fname,line))

But I also want to output the line itself, not only its number.
