python段错误原因_在Python库中捕获段错误

Yo,

An app of mine relies on PIL. When PIL hits a certain problem font (for

unknown reasons as of now) it tends to segfault and no amount of try/except

will keep my wxPython app alive.

My first thought is to start the app from a bash script that will check the

return value of my wxPython app and could then launch a new app to help the

user grok what happened and fix it.

Do you think that''s a good idea, or is there another way to handle stuff

like this? (perhaps a Python app launching another Python app?)

Run your app under a debugger and figure out what is making it crash.

Already done, the code within PIL is causing the crash. It gets ugly and out

of my remit. It''s a freetype/Pil thing and I simply want to a way to catch

it when it happens.

Since a segfault ends the process, I am asking about "wrappers" around code

to catch a segfault.

Well I think you should actually debug it, or at least reproduce it

and send a bug report to the PIL folks, but anyway you can use

os.wait() to get the exit status and recognize the seg fault.
