Description (last modified by kr)

I have three models whereas one has a custom __init__() method:

class Foo(models.Model):
    my_foo = models.CharField(max_length=1000)


class Bar(models.Model):
    bar1 = models.CharField(max_length=1000, default="")
    bar2 = models.BooleanField(default=False)
    foo = models.ForeignKey(Foo, on_delete=models.CASCADE)

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(Bar, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        print("check")
        self._original_bar1 = self.bar1
        self._original_bar2 = self.bar2


class Baz(models.Model):
    bar = models.ForeignKey(Bar, on_delete=models.CASCADE)

Creating a Foo object and a corresponding Bar object (via the admin interface) works fine.
However, when I delete the Foo object, this results in an endless loop of the __init__() method.

If I rewrite the models slightly as

from django.db import models


class Foo(models.Model):
    my_foo = models.CharField(max_length=1000)


class AbstractBar2(models.Model):
    bar2 = models.BooleanField(default=False)

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(AbstractBar2, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        print("check")
        self._original_bar2 = self.bar2

    class Meta:
        abstract = True


class AbstractBar1(models.Model):
    bar1 = models.CharField(max_length=1000, default="")

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(AbstractBar1, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        print("check")
        self._original_bar1 = self.bar1

    class Meta:
        abstract = True


class Bar(AbstractBar1, AbstractBar2):
    foo = models.ForeignKey(Foo, on_delete=models.CASCADE)


class Baz(models.Model):
    bar = models.ForeignKey(Bar, on_delete=models.CASCADE)

it errors out on

Fatal Python error: _Py_CheckRecursiveCall: Cannot recover from stack overflow.

You should explain why Django is at fault and not your custom __init__() method, and ideally propose some solution.

Replying to Tim Graham:

The only thing my custom __init__() method does is retrieving model attributes and saving them to local variables. I don't see why this should be illegal to do, especially because it works except when I try to perform the delete operations.
In my opinion, the code is simple enough that a "justification" why the __init__() method is not at fault is not needed.
Obviously, django runs into an endless loop with the model initializations / fetching the model from the db. This clearly seems to be a fault of the django framework. Agreed?
