But you don't need to use the latter. For logging exceptions with a level of
ERROR, the former construction works. For the case where you want to log an
exception with (e.g.) a DEBUG level, then you would say
log.logException(DEBUG, sys.exc_info(), "My britches are burning!")
A little long-winded, perhaps, but not *that* bad. It has the benefit of
making it clear that even though it's a DEBUG level call, exception info is
to be sent to the log. Even in Jeremy's example of ZODB/ZEO, I would imagine
that the number of instances where you need to make the second kind of
logging call are relatively (i.e. proportionately) few - from his
explanation I infer that he was talking about "catch-all" exception handlers
which are usually at the higher levels of an application.
Anyway, to change the subject a bit, what are your thoughts on
configuration? As this is the area where the PEP and the present
implementation are both a little weak, I'd like to know more about your
ideas...
