import sys
try:
raise "xxx"
except str,e:
print "1",e
except:
print "2",sys.exc_type,sys.exc_value
In the above code a string exception is raised which though deprecated but still a 3rd party library I use uses it. So how can I catch such exception without relying on catch all, which could be bad.
except str,e: doesn't catch it? why?
