    # 3. Exception Handling 
    ##################################################################### 
 
    # The functions described in this chapter will let you handle and 
    # raise Python exceptions. It is important to understand some of 
    # the basics of Python exception handling. It works somewhat like 
    # the Unix errno variable: there is a global indicator (per 
    # thread) of the last error that occurred. Most functions don't 
    # clear this on success, but will set it to indicate the cause of 
    # the error on failure. Most functions also return an error 
    # indicator, usually NULL if they are supposed to return a 
    # pointer, or -1 if they return an integer (exception: the 
    # PyArg_*() functions return 1 for success and 0 for failure). 
 
    # When a function must fail because some function it called 
    # failed, it generally doesn't set the error indicator; the 
    # function it called already set it. It is responsible for either 
    # handling the error and clearing the exception or returning after 
    # cleaning up any resources it holds (such as object references or 
    # memory allocations); it should not continue normally if it is 
    # not prepared to handle the error. If returning due to an error, 
    # it is important to indicate to the caller that an error has been 
    # set. If the error is not handled or carefully propagated, 
    # additional calls into the Python/C API may not behave as 
    # intended and may fail in mysterious ways. 
 
    # The error indicator consists of three Python objects 
    # corresponding to the Python variables sys.exc_type, 
    # sys.exc_value and sys.exc_traceback. API functions exist to 
    # interact with the error indicator in various ways. There is a 
    # separate error indicator for each thread. 
 
    void PyErr_Print() 
    # Print a standard traceback to sys.stderr and clear the error 
    # indicator. Call this function only when the error indicator is 
    # set. (Otherwise it will cause a fatal error!) 
 
    PyObject* PyErr_Occurred() 
    # Return value: Borrowed reference. 
    # Test whether the error indicator is set. If set, return the 
    # exception type (the first argument to the last call to one of 
    # the PyErr_Set*() functions or to PyErr_Restore()). If not set, 
    # return NULL. You do not own a reference to the return value, so 
    # you do not need to Py_DECREF() it. Note: Do not compare the 
    # return value to a specific exception; use 
    # PyErr_ExceptionMatches() instead, shown below. (The comparison 
    # could easily fail since the exception may be an instance instead 
    # of a class, in the case of a class exception, or it may be a
    # subclass of the expected exception.) 
 
    bint PyErr_ExceptionMatches(object exc) 
    # Equivalent to "PyErr_GivenExceptionMatches(PyErr_Occurred(), 
    # exc)". This should only be called when an exception is actually 
    # set; a memory access violation will occur if no exception has 
    # been raised. 
 
    bint PyErr_GivenExceptionMatches(object given, object exc) 
    # Return true if the given exception matches the exception in 
    # exc. If exc is a class object, this also returns true when given 
    # is an instance of a subclass. If exc is a tuple, all exceptions 
    # in the tuple (and recursively in subtuples) are searched for a 
    # match. If given is NULL, a memory access violation will occur. 
 
    void PyErr_NormalizeException(PyObject** exc, PyObject** val, PyObject** tb) 
    # Under certain circumstances, the values returned by 
    # PyErr_Fetch() below can be ``unnormalized'', meaning that *exc 
    # is a class object but *val is not an instance of the same 
    # class. This function can be used to instantiate the class in 
    # that case. If the values are already normalized, nothing 
    # happens. The delayed normalization is implemented to improve 
    # performance. 
 
    void PyErr_Clear() 
    # Clear the error indicator. If the error indicator is not set, there is no effect. 
 
    void PyErr_Fetch(PyObject** ptype, PyObject** pvalue, PyObject** ptraceback) 
    # Retrieve the error indicator into three variables whose 
    # addresses are passed. If the error indicator is not set, set all 
    # three variables to NULL. If it is set, it will be cleared and 
    # you own a reference to each object retrieved. The value and 
    # traceback object may be NULL even when the type object is 
    # not. Note: This function is normally only used by code that 
    # needs to handle exceptions or by code that needs to save and 
    # restore the error indicator temporarily. 
 
    void PyErr_Restore(PyObject* type, PyObject* value, PyObject* traceback) 
    # Set the error indicator from the three objects. If the error 
    # indicator is already set, it is cleared first. If the objects 
    # are NULL, the error indicator is cleared. Do not pass a NULL 
    # type and non-NULL value or traceback. The exception type should 
    # be a class. Do not pass an invalid exception type or 
    # value. (Violating these rules will cause subtle problems later.) 
    # This call takes away a reference to each object: you must own a 
    # reference to each object before the call and after the call you 
    # no longer own these references. (If you don't understand this, 
    # don't use this function. I warned you.) Note: This function is 
    # normally only used by code that needs to save and restore the 
    # error indicator temporarily; use PyErr_Fetch() to save the 
    # current exception state. 
 
    void PyErr_SetString(object type, char *message) 
    # This is the most common way to set the error indicator. The 
    # first argument specifies the exception type; it is normally one 
    # of the standard exceptions, e.g. PyExc_RuntimeError. You need 
    # not increment its reference count. The second argument is an 
    # error message; it is converted to a string object. 
 
    void PyErr_SetObject(object type, object value) 
    # This function is similar to PyErr_SetString() but lets you 
    # specify an arbitrary Python object for the ``value'' of the 
    # exception. 
 
    PyObject* PyErr_Format(object exception, char *format, ...) except NULL 
    # Return value: Always NULL. 
    # This function sets the error indicator and returns 
    # NULL. exception should be a Python exception (class, not an 
    # instance). format should be a string, containing format codes, 
    # similar to printf(). The width.precision before a format code is 
    # parsed, but the width part is ignored. 
 
    void PyErr_SetNone(object type) 
    # This is a shorthand for "PyErr_SetObject(type, Py_None)". 
 
    int PyErr_BadArgument() except 0 
 
    # This is a shorthand for "PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, 
    # message)", where message indicates that a built-in operation was 
    # invoked with an illegal argument. It is mostly for internal use. 
 
    PyObject* PyErr_NoMemory() except NULL 
    # Return value: Always NULL. 
    # This is a shorthand for "PyErr_SetNone(PyExc_MemoryError)"; it 
    # returns NULL so an object allocation function can write "return 
    # PyErr_NoMemory();" when it runs out of memory. 
 
    PyObject* PyErr_SetFromErrno(object type) except NULL 
    # Return value: Always NULL. 
    # This is a convenience function to raise an exception when a C 
    # library function has returned an error and set the C variable 
    # errno. It constructs a tuple object whose first item is the 
    # integer errno value and whose second item is the corresponding 
    # error message (gotten from strerror()), and then calls 
    # "PyErr_SetObject(type, object)". On Unix, when the errno value 
    # is EINTR, indicating an interrupted system call, this calls 
    # PyErr_CheckSignals(), and if that set the error indicator, 
    # leaves it set to that. The function always returns NULL, so a 
    # wrapper function around a system call can write "return 
    # PyErr_SetFromErrno(type);" when the system call returns an 
    # error. 
 
    PyObject* PyErr_SetFromErrnoWithFilenameObject(object type, object filenameObject) except NULL
    # Similar to PyErr_SetFromErrno(), with the additional behavior
    # that if filenameObject is not NULL, it is passed to the
    # constructor of type as a third parameter.
    # In the case of OSError exception, this is used to define
    # the filename attribute of the exception instance.

    PyObject* PyErr_SetFromErrnoWithFilename(object type, char *filename) except NULL 
    # Return value: Always NULL.  Similar to PyErr_SetFromErrno(), 
    # with the additional behavior that if filename is not NULL, it is 
    # passed to the constructor of type as a third parameter. In the 
    # case of exceptions such as IOError and OSError, this is used to 
    # define the filename attribute of the exception instance. 
 
    PyObject* PyErr_SetFromWindowsErr(int ierr) except NULL 
    # Return value: Always NULL.  This is a convenience function to 
    # raise WindowsError. If called with ierr of 0, the error code 
    # returned by a call to GetLastError() is used instead. It calls 
    # the Win32 function FormatMessage() to retrieve the Windows 
    # description of error code given by ierr or GetLastError(), then 
    # it constructs a tuple object whose first item is the ierr value 
    # and whose second item is the corresponding error message (gotten 
    # from FormatMessage()), and then calls 
    # "PyErr_SetObject(PyExc_WindowsError, object)". This function 
    # always returns NULL. Availability: Windows. 
 
    PyObject* PyErr_SetExcFromWindowsErr(object type, int ierr) except NULL 
    # Return value: Always NULL.  Similar to 
    # PyErr_SetFromWindowsErr(), with an additional parameter 
    # specifying the exception type to be raised. Availability: 
    # Windows. New in version 2.3. 
 
    PyObject* PyErr_SetFromWindowsErrWithFilename(int ierr, char *filename) except NULL 
    # Return value: Always NULL.  Similar to 
    # PyErr_SetFromWindowsErr(), with the additional behavior that if 
    # filename is not NULL, it is passed to the constructor of 
    # WindowsError as a third parameter. Availability: Windows. 
 
    PyObject* PyErr_SetExcFromWindowsErrWithFilename(object type, int ierr, char *filename) except NULL 
    # Return value: Always NULL. 
    # Similar to PyErr_SetFromWindowsErrWithFilename(), with an 
    # additional parameter specifying the exception type to be 
    # raised. Availability: Windows. 
 
    void PyErr_BadInternalCall() 
    # This is a shorthand for "PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, 
    # message)", where message indicates that an internal operation 
    # (e.g. a Python/C API function) was invoked with an illegal 
    # argument. It is mostly for internal use. 
 
    int PyErr_WarnEx(object category, char *message, int stacklevel) except -1 
    # Issue a warning message. The category argument is a warning 
    # category (see below) or NULL; the message argument is a message 
    # string. stacklevel is a positive number giving a number of stack 
    # frames; the warning will be issued from the currently executing 
    # line of code in that stack frame. A stacklevel of 1 is the 
    # function calling PyErr_WarnEx(), 2 is the function above that, 
    # and so forth. 
 
    int PyErr_WarnExplicit(object category, char *message, char *filename, int lineno, char *module, object registry) except -1 
    # Issue a warning message with explicit control over all warning 
    # attributes. This is a straightforward wrapper around the Python 
    # function warnings.warn_explicit(), see there for more 
    # information. The module and registry arguments may be set to 
    # NULL to get the default effect described there. 
 
    int PyErr_CheckSignals() except -1 
    # This function interacts with Python's signal handling. It checks 
    # whether a signal has been sent to the processes and if so, 
    # invokes the corresponding signal handler. If the signal module 
    # is supported, this can invoke a signal handler written in 
    # Python. In all cases, the default effect for SIGINT is to raise 
    # the KeyboardInterrupt exception. If an exception is raised the 
    # error indicator is set and the function returns 1; otherwise the 
    # function returns 0. The error indicator may or may not be 
    # cleared if it was previously set. 
 
    void PyErr_SetInterrupt() nogil 
    # This function simulates the effect of a SIGINT signal arriving 
    # -- the next time PyErr_CheckSignals() is called, 
    # KeyboardInterrupt will be raised. It may be called without 
    # holding the interpreter lock. 
 
    object PyErr_NewException(char *name, object base, object dict) 
    # Return value: New reference. 
    # This utility function creates and returns a new exception 
    # object. The name argument must be the name of the new exception, 
    # a C string of the form module.class. The base and dict arguments 
    # are normally NULL. This creates a class object derived from 
    # Exception (accessible in C as PyExc_Exception). 
 
    void PyErr_WriteUnraisable(object obj) 
    # This utility function prints a warning message to sys.stderr 
    # when an exception has been set but it is impossible for the 
    # interpreter to actually raise the exception. It is used, for 
    # example, when an exception occurs in an __del__() method. 
    # 
    # The function is called with a single argument obj that 
    # identifies the context in which the unraisable exception 
    # occurred. The repr of obj will be printed in the warning 
    # message.
