  • How to catch a fatal error in Python 2.7?

    Hello,

    The fatal error exits the program with a code -1 while referencing the
    memory address involved and nothing else.

    How to catch it in Python 2.7?

    PS: please not I am not talking about exceptions but an error resulting
    from the disconnection of my bluetooth microphone abruptly and leading to
    the halting of the whole program, I need to be able to do something when it occurs.

    Thanks for the help!

    Does the problem occur with Python 3.x? At this date, Python 2.7 is
    only supported by your vendor if you are using an enterprise Linux distribution.

    I don't think there is a way to recover from that error in your python
    script. It could be a bug in the Python interpreter (which will never
    be fixed in 2.7), or it could be a bug in a library somewhere. The
    latter is most likely. There's nothing you can do about it from a
    Python script to recover.
