Okay, I am confused. I am using two Python packages - PyPDF2 and SQLAlchemy. SQLAlchemy is raising a warning using python's warning.warn(), and somehow calling a formatWarning() function in PyPDF2, which also uses python's warning.warn().
Is this an error in SQLAlchemy or PyPDF2?
How does this even happen - is formatWarning some special function?
PyPDF2 defines it as:
#custom implementation of warnings.formatwarning
def formatWarning(message, category, filename, lineno, line=None):
file = filename.replace("/", "\\").rsplit("\\", 1)[1] # find the file name
return "%s: %s [%s:%s]\n" % (category.__name__, message, file, lineno)
My error stack is -
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/SQLAlchemy-0.9.7-py2.7-linux-x86_64.egg/sqlalchemy/orm/strategies.py", line 613, in _emit_lazyload
