Doing cleaup in except is not the Python way. This is what finally is for. Using except you would have to at least say:
try:
stuff()
cleanup()
except:
cleanup()
raise
Duplicate code - not nice. finally is the Python way:
try:
stuff()
finally:
cleanup()
That's it. But the return statement should not be a part of finally if
you want exceptions to propagate out of the function containing
try/finally. As mentioned multiple times in the thread.
