From 9c850d6c4b95bb07fb066eb7f43dd4e3b4842b85 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Thu, 2 Jun 2011 10:55:10 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf python: Use exception to propagate errors We were using pr_debug to tell the user about not being able to parse a sample where we should really use the python way of reporting errors: exceptions. Fixes this problem: [root@emilia ~]# python >>> import perf Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in ImportError: /home/acme/git/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: eprintf >>> [root@emilia ~] As we want to keep the objects linked in the python binding (and in the future in a shared library) minimal.
