[cx-oracle-users] best way to get oracle error number from exception?

[Mark H. <mh...@pi...>]

Right now I'm doing this, which works but seems a bit fragile.
Is there a better way to do this?

try:
     conn = cx_Oracle.connect(user, passwd, connurl)
except cx_Oracle.DatabaseError, e:
     oranum=str(e).split(':')[0]
     print 'oranum=/%s/'%(oranum)

oranum=/ORA-01017/

Many TIA!
Mark
