[Tutor] Re: catching any exception?

[BELSEY, Dylan]

	Is it possible to import you DCOracle module where the exceptions
are defined and then perform the following:

	try:
		# Whatever
	except DCOracle.exception, errmsg:
		# handler ???

	As you have said below, if DCOracle defines exceptions, why not try
and use them. This is just an idea as I have not seen the definition of the
DCOracle exceptions.
