Hello all,
The whole question: How should I handle failed initialisation code inside
the __init__ of an object ?
I've seen an example doing a plain "return" (of the value "none""), but have
no idea if that is all it takes.
Also, I wonder what happens to the object itself. Does it still exist and
only gets actually destroyed at the next garbage-collection (because of a
zero reference count), or is it directly discarded (without having called
the __del__ method) ?

Raise an exception. Returning None will specifically NOT accomplish the thing
you want; nothing ever checks the return value of __init__.
