-no-get-exception
-================
-
-We created a function, ``ansible.module_utils.pycompat24.get_exception`` to
-help retrieve exceptions in a manner compatible with Python 2.4 through
-Python 3.6. We no longer support Python 2.4 and Python 2.5 so this is
-extraneous and we want to deprecate the function. Porting code should look
-something like this:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
- # Unfixed code:
- try:
- raise IOError('test')
- except IOError:
- e = get_exception()
- do_something(e)
- except:
- e = get_exception()
- do_something_else(e)
-
- # After fixing:
- try:
- raise IOError('test')
- except IOErrors as e:
- do_something(e)
- except Exception as e:
- do_something_else(e)
