These details are also available through the \function{sys.exc_info()} -function, which returns a tuple \code{(exc_type,} \code{exc_value,} -\code{exc_traceback)}. Use of the corresponding variables is +function, which returns a tuple \code{(\var{exc_type}, \var{exc_value}, +\var{exc_traceback})}. Use of the corresponding variables is deprecated in favor of this function, since their use is unsafe in a threaded program. As of Python 1.5, the variables are restored to their previous values (before the call) when returning from a function that handled an exception. -\refbimodindex{sys} -\withsubitem{(in module sys)}{% - \ttindex{exc_type}% - \ttindex{exc_value}% - \ttindex{exc_traceback}} -\obindex{traceback} +\withsubitem{(in module sys)}{\ttindex{exc_type} + \ttindex{exc_value}\ttindex{exc_traceback}} The optional \keyword{else} clause is executed when no exception occurs in the \keyword{try} clause.
