Subject: Speed up Node.FS.EntryProxy.__getattr__() by not spending cycles
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e8726092a4e76dda012c7f6ef7e499e4a170885b;p=scons.git

Speed up Node.FS.EntryProxy.__getattr__() by not spending cycles
generating an AttributeError exception message that gets ignored most
of the time.  Instead, re-raise an AttributeError subclass that delays
message generation until its __str__() method is actually called.
(Brad Fitzpatrick)
