[gdal-dev] Python gdal catch ERROR 6

[Luca Delucchi]

Hi devs,

PDF driver is actually supporting only 8 bit band, and if I try to
create a layer using CreateCopy function with a dataset different from
8 bit I get "ERROR 6: PDF driver doesn't support data type UInt16.
Only eight bit byte bands supported."

I try to catch this error using try/except but it doesn't work, should
I test if the result of CreateCopy is not None? Is there any other
better way to catch this error?

thanks
