Bug in exception handling in Eikon python package

alastair.white

There is a bug in the Eikon python package version 1.1.8 for Python3 on line 151 in json_requests.py

except Exception as e:
    logger.error(f"HTTP request failed: {type(e).__name__}-{e.message}")

e.message was deprecated in Python2.6 and is not a member variable of the Exception class in Python3, can this be fixed?

Kind regards,
Alastair

The issue is fixed in Eikon Data APIs library v1.1.10.
