I've spawned a Greenlet and linked it to a callable. Some time later, the Greenlet fails with an Exception. The linked callable gets called. That's all great!
Here's the issue:
The traceback for the Exception appears on my console, as you'd expect. But I want do things with that traceback within the linked callable. How do I get access to that traceback within the linked callable?
(My first instinct was to use traceback.extract_stack(), but it turns out that provides a traceback for the linked callable itself and not for the Exception.)
The traceback is intentionally not saved when the Greenlet dies. If it was saved, it would keep a lot of objects alive that are expected to be deleted, which matters especially if the object manages some resource (open file or socket).
If you want to save the traceback you have to do it yourself.
