Is the any command line option in python to print the Exception/Error Class hierarchy?
The output should be similar to http://docs.python.org/2/library/exceptions.html#exception-hierarchy
880
To catch and print an exception that occurred in a code snippet, wrap it in an indented try block, followed by the command "except Exception as e" that catches the exception and saves its error message in string variable e . You can now print the error message with "print(e)" or use it for further processing.
The Standard Exception HierarchyThe root class for all exceptions is the new exception Exception. From this, two additional classes are derived, StandardError, which is the root class for all standard exceptions, and SystemExit.
Another way to catch all Python exceptions when it occurs during runtime is to use the raise keyword. It is a manual process wherein you can optionally pass values to the exception to clarify the reason why it was raised. if x <= 0: raise ValueError(“It is not a positive number!”)
The hierarchy of Exceptions in the Java programming language begins with the Throwable class – which comes from the Object class and is its direct subclasswhileThe Exception class presents all This Throwable class further branches into two subclasses – Error and Exception.
inspect module might help, specifically getclasstree() function:
Arrange the given list of classes into a hierarchy of nested lists. Where a nested list appears, it contains classes derived from the class whose entry immediately precedes the list.
inspect.getclasstree(inspect.getmro(Exception))
Or, you can recursively go through __subclasses__() down by an inheritance tree, like this:
def classtree(cls, indent=0):
print '.' * indent, cls.__name__
for subcls in cls.__subclasses__():
classtree(subcls, indent + 3)
classtree(BaseException)
prints:
