[python-win32] Exiting an embedded script?

[Jesper Hertel]

Hello Karl,

I am not sure that I completely understand the question, but how about
putting the code in a function and then use raise to quit the function when
needed?

This doesn't work as you said:

... code 1 ...
if condition:
	sys.exit()
... code 2 ...
	

My suggestion is to change it to:


def main():
	... code 1 ...

	if condition:
		raise "exit"

	... code 2 ...

try:
	main()
except "exit":
	# Allow the exit.
	pass


I haven't tried it under your circumstances; it is just an idea.

I am trying to exit an embedded script before the end of the script. If
I use sys.exit(), the parent application also exits. How can I
prematurely end the python script without ending the parent application.


I am using PyRun_SimpleFile()

I then check the return of that function but if the python script calls
sys.exit(), my program exits before it can do anything about the error.

Any ideas?
