[Python.NET] catching exceptions thrown from .Net

[Mathew Yeates]

yes, RC2. My bad.
Are we talking about the same thing? I noticed in the docs that you have 
an example of throwing exceptions from within the python code. But no 
examples of handling exceptions thrown within the .Net code.

Anyway ... theres not much to this code

.Net code
--------------------------------------------
public class MineralDBException:Exception 
    {
        public MineralDBException(String msg):base(msg){
           
        }
    }
public MineralDBase(String fname)
        {
           
           
          
            try
            {
                fs = new FileStream(fname, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
            }
            catch(Exception e)
            {
                throw new MineralDBException(e.Message);
            }
----------------------------------
python code, no exception is seen when calling MineralDBase this way but 
an exception IS seen when calling from another .Net assembly
-----------------------------------

db=MineralDBase("fooey")
