[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 05/10] qemu.py: Use custom exceptions rather than


From: Lukáš Doktor
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 05/10] qemu.py: Use custom exceptions rather than Exception
Date: Wed, 26 Jul 2017 16:42:21 +0200

The naked Exception should not be widely used. It makes sense to be a
bit more specific and use better-suited custom exceptions. As a benefit
we can store the full reply in the exception in case someone needs it
when catching the exception.
