Python: get error message?

hogi

Python integration in jmp is very useful.

For debugging - when I executing a command in Python  via

Python Submit()

and get a return value -1, indicating that something went wrong. 

Is there a possibility to get the error message?

 

e.g. an automatically updated Python variable, which I could get back to JSL via

 

Python Get(PythonErrorMessage)

I've been told they are working on it. I was able to build Python code with extra try/except to pass unexpected errors back to JMP as an error message. From Browser Scripting with Python Selenium 

Python Init(); // one-time startup...
// 0: startup 
xrc = Python Execute( {}, {By_ID, By_XPATH, rc},
"\[
try:
    from selenium import webdriver
...
    By_XPATH = By.XPATH
    rc = "ok"
except Exception as e:
    rc = repr(e)
]\"
);

If( xrc != 0 | rc != "ok", Throw( "start up Selenium failed" || Try( ": " || Char( rc ), "" ) ) );

I agree, that wrapper should be built into the execute interface. And, as I recall, there was some sort of failure that it doesn't catch, but it made debugging much more enjoyable.
