虽然不可能直接捕获在不同线程中抛出的异常，但下面的代码可以相当透明地获取与此功能非常接近的内容。子线程必须继承ExThread类而不是线程。线程和父线程在等待线程完成任务时必须调用child_thread.join_with_exception()方法，而不是child_thread.join()方法。

此实现的技术细节:当子线程抛出异常时，它将通过Queue传递给父线程，并在父线程中再次抛出。注意，在这种方法中没有忙碌等待。

#!/usr/bin/env python

import sys
import threading
import Queue

class ExThread(threading.Thread):
    def __init__(self):
        threading.Thread.__init__(self)
        self.__status_queue = Queue.Queue()

    def run_with_exception(self):
        """This method should be overriden."""
        raise NotImplementedError

    def run(self):
        """This method should NOT be overriden."""
        try:
            self.run_with_exception()
        except BaseException:
            self.__status_queue.put(sys.exc_info())
        self.__status_queue.put(None)

    def wait_for_exc_info(self):
        return self.__status_queue.get()

    def join_with_exception(self):
        ex_info = self.wait_for_exc_info()
        if ex_info is None:
            return
        else:
            raise ex_info[1]

class MyException(Exception):
    pass

class MyThread(ExThread):
    def __init__(self):
        ExThread.__init__(self)

    def run_with_exception(self):
        thread_name = threading.current_thread().name
        raise MyException("An error in thread '{}'.".format(thread_name))

def main():
    t = MyThread()
    t.start()
    try:
        t.join_with_exception()
    except MyException as ex:
        thread_name = threading.current_thread().name
        print "Caught a MyException in thread '{}': {}".format(thread_name, ex)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

我知道我在这里有点晚了，但我有一个非常类似的问题，但它包括使用tkinter作为GUI，并且主循环使它不可能使用依赖于.join()的任何解决方案。因此，我调整了原问题EDIT中给出的解决方案，但使其更一般，以便于其他人更容易理解。

下面是运行中的新线程类:

import threading
import traceback
import logging


class ExceptionThread(threading.Thread):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        threading.Thread.__init__(self, *args, **kwargs)

    def run(self):
        try:
            if self._target:
                self._target(*self._args, **self._kwargs)
        except Exception:
            logging.error(traceback.format_exc())


def test_function_1(input):
    raise IndexError(input)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    input = 'useful'

    t1 = ExceptionThread(target=test_function_1, args=[input])
    t1.start()

当然，您总是可以让它以日志以外的其他方式处理异常，例如将其打印出来，或将其输出到控制台。

这允许您像使用Thread类一样使用ExceptionThread类，无需任何特殊修改。

Pygolang提供同步功能。工作组，特别是将异常从派生的工作线程传播到主线程。例如:

#!/usr/bin/env python
"""This program demostrates how with sync.WorkGroup an exception raised in
spawned thread is propagated into main thread which spawned the worker."""

from __future__ import print_function
from golang import sync, context

def T1(ctx, *argv):
    print('T1: run ... %r' % (argv,))
    raise RuntimeError('T1: problem')

def T2(ctx):
    print('T2: ran ok')

def main():
    wg = sync.WorkGroup(context.background())
    wg.go(T1, [1,2,3])
    wg.go(T2)

    try:
        wg.wait()
    except Exception as e:
        print('Tmain: caught exception: %r\n' %e)
        # reraising to see full traceback
        raise

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

在运行时给出以下结果:

T1: run ... ([1, 2, 3],)
T2: ran ok
Tmain: caught exception: RuntimeError('T1: problem',)

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./x.py", line 28, in <module>
    main()
  File "./x.py", line 21, in main
    wg.wait()
  File "golang/_sync.pyx", line 198, in golang._sync.PyWorkGroup.wait
    pyerr_reraise(pyerr)
  File "golang/_sync.pyx", line 178, in golang._sync.PyWorkGroup.go.pyrunf
    f(pywg._pyctx, *argv, **kw)
  File "./x.py", line 10, in T1
    raise RuntimeError('T1: problem')
RuntimeError: T1: problem

问题的原始代码将是:

    wg = sync.WorkGroup(context.background())

    def _(ctx):
        shul.copytree(sourceFolder, destFolder)
    wg.go(_)

    # waits for spawned worker to complete and, on error, reraises
    # its exception on the main thread.
    wg.wait()

我做的是，简单的覆盖连接和运行线程的方法:

class RaisingThread(threading.Thread):
  def run(self):
    self._exc = None
    try:
      super().run()
    except Exception as e:
      self._exc = e

  def join(self, timeout=None):
    super().join(timeout=timeout)
    if self._exc:
      raise self._exc

用途如下:

def foo():
  time.sleep(2)
  print('hi, from foo!')
  raise Exception('exception from foo')    

t = RaisingThread(target=foo)
t.start()
try:
  t.join()
except Exception as e:
  print(e)

结果:

hi, from foo!
exception from foo!

并发。Futures模块使得在单独的线程(或进程)中工作并处理任何由此产生的异常变得简单:

import concurrent.futures
import shutil

def copytree_with_dots(src_path, dst_path):
    with concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=1) as executor:
        # Execute the copy on a separate thread,
        # creating a future object to track progress.
        future = executor.submit(shutil.copytree, src_path, dst_path)

        while future.running():
            # Print pretty dots here.
            pass

        # Return the value returned by shutil.copytree(), None.
        # Raise any exceptions raised during the copy process.
        return future.result()

并发。futures包含在Python 3.2中，并可作为早期版本的反向移植futures模块使用。

类似于RickardSjogren的方法，没有Queue, sys等，但也没有一些信号监听器:直接执行一个异常处理程序，对应于一个异常块。

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import threading

class ExceptionThread(threading.Thread):

    def __init__(self, callback=None, *args, **kwargs):
        """
        Redirect exceptions of thread to an exception handler.

        :param callback: function to handle occured exception
        :type callback: function(thread, exception)
        :param args: arguments for threading.Thread()
        :type args: tuple
        :param kwargs: keyword arguments for threading.Thread()
        :type kwargs: dict
        """
        self._callback = callback
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)

    def run(self):
        try:
            if self._target:
                self._target(*self._args, **self._kwargs)
        except BaseException as e:
            if self._callback is None:
                raise e
            else:
                self._callback(self, e)
        finally:
            # Avoid a refcycle if the thread is running a function with
            # an argument that has a member that points to the thread.
            del self._target, self._args, self._kwargs, self._callback

只有自我。_callback和run()中的except块是普通threading.Thread之外的。
