[Jython-users] try..except and subclass exceptions

[Michal T. <Mic...@co...>]

Hi,

I tried jython a minute ago and its fantastic! Writting in java was never
such easy :)
But I found a problem:
try..except statement doesn't catch subclass exceptions
e.g.
when I have an object of class javax.naming.NamingException which is a
subclass of java.lang.Exception than statement:
try:
   ...
except Exception:
   ...

doesn't catch that object and statement

try:
   ...
except NamingException:
   ..

does.

Is this a bug, or just a jython feature?

best regards,
Michal
