[gdal-dev] [gdal Python] Exceptions not reset correctly ifgdal.UseExceptions() is used

[Antonio Valentino]

Even,
my opinion is that if all info are attached to the python exception then it 
should not matter if the error status is reset or not.

Anyway I can't figure out why an exception is raised if the called function 
that doesn't generete any error.

best regards

Luca,

(This behaviour is identical in trunk too)

we could probably reset the error state after issuing the exception, but 
that
would prevent code from getting the error message if they call
gdal.GetLastErrorMsg() afterwards. But I don't think this would be a 
problem.
We should probably also call ErrorReset() in gdal.UseExceptions() so that
previous errors don't cause unexpected exceptions to be thrown.

Howard ?
