sys.exitfunc not working in python
I am trying to run following simple code
import sys
print("Starting Test Python Module");
def testmethod():
print("From test method")
sys.exitfunc = testmethod
print("Terminating Test Python Module");
and it prints
C:\Users\athakur\Softwares>python test.py
Starting Test Python Module
Terminating Test Python Module
I am not able to understand why it does not print "From Test method"
Using atexit works fine though
import atexit
print("Starting Test Python Module");
def testmethod():
print("From test method")
atexit.register(testmethod)
print("Terminating Test Python Module");
Outputs
C:\Users\athakur\Softwares>python test.py
Starting Test Python Module
Terminating Test Python Module
From test method

raise Exception("Good bye cruel world!")
outputs

fh = figure(figsize = (15, 10, ))
ax = fh.add_axes((.1, .1, .8, .8, ))
ax.scatter(random((100, )), random((100, )))
