In your construct, if self.db_transaction.commit() raises an exception,
self.tmpoutfile won't get closed and self.destroy_shared_memory_handle()
won't be called.

In my proposal, if an exception is raised in a "try" block, the execution
skips to the next "then" block, and so on.
At the end it executes the "except" block if at least one "try" or "then"
block raised an exception.
