I want to fix an error in some code I have installed, however I don't
really want to just bodge it.
The function producing the error is:-
def get_text(self, idx): # override !
node = self.items[idx]
a= [
", ".join(node.tags),
node.comment,
node.folderName,
cd2rd(node.date),
node.name,
'[' + self.rating_stars[node.rating] + ']'
] [self.select]
return a
The error occurs when node[] (or at least its members) turn out to be
empty, you get a Traceback that ends with:-
File "/usr/lib/jbrout/jbrout/listview.py", line 608, in draw_cell layout.set_text(self.get_text(thumbnail_num))
File "/usr/lib/jbrout/jbrout.py", line 325, in get_text ", ".join(node.tags),
TypeError: sequence item 0: expected string, NoneType found
Now its *probably* something higher up the tree causing the problem
(it's only one particular image in 20 thousand or so that breaks
things) but I really want to just get things working. So, what's the
neatest way to protect the get_text() method from empty data?
