&quot;raised&quot;, not &quot;thrown&quot;, as they are in
C++. When this documentation says that some Python exception is
&quot;raised&quot; in the context of C++ code, it means that the
corresponding Python exception is set via the <a
href="http://www.python.org/doc/current/api/exceptionHandling.html">Python/'C'
API</a>, and <code><a
href="errors.html#throw_error_already_set-spec">throw_error_already_set</a>()</code>
is called.</dt>
