I am a shadow of some remote Failure instance. I contain less information than the original did.

You can still extract a (brief) printable traceback from me. My .parents attribute is a list of strings describing the class of the exception that I contain, just like the real Failure had, so my trap() and check() methods work fine. My .type and .value attributes are string representations of the original exception class and exception instance, respectively. The most significant effect is that you cannot access f.value.args, and should instead just use f.value .

My .frames and .stack attributes are empty, although this may change in the future (and with the cooperation of the sender).

Method Details [hide private]

__init__(self)
(Constructor)

source code 

Initialize me with an explanation of the error.

By default, this will use the current exception (sys.exc_info()). However, if you want to specify a particular kind of failure, you can pass an exception as an argument.

If no exc_value is passed, then an "original" Failure will be searched for. If the current exception handler that this Failure is being constructed in is handling an exception raised by raiseException, then this Failure will act like the original Failure.

Overrides: copyable._RemoteCopyBase.__init__

__getstate__(self)

source code 

Avoid pickling objects in the traceback.

Overrides: twisted.python.failure.Failure.__getstate__

__str__(self)

Overrides: twisted.python.failure.Failure.__str__

printTraceback(self, file=None, elideFrameworkCode=0, detail='default')
