# STACKTRACE.PY -- FORMAT A TRACEBACK WITH LOCAL VARIABLES
#
# Nick Barnes, Ravenbrook Limited, 2001-01-19
#
#
# 1. INTRODUCTION
#
# This module defines a function format_exception. This takes the same
# arguments as the built-in function traceback.format_exception [Python
# 2.0 Library, 3.9] and returns a result in a similar format, namely a
# list of strings describing the exception and tracing the stack that
# were passed as arguments to the function. The result is the result of
# traceback.format_exception with the addition of the local variables in
# each stack frame.
#
# This function is intended to
#
# 1. Allow administrators to debug their configuration [Requirements,
# 63] by by providing as much information as possible when an error
# occurs.
#
# 2. Allow developers to debug modifications of the P4DTI
# [Requirements, 25] ditto.
#
# 3. Help Perforce support to assist administrators [Requirements, 33,
# 34, 35] ditto.
#
# The intended readership of this document is project developers.
#
# This document is not confidential.

# traceback without local variables isn't as much use to us as one with
