#75335 — TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable

Hi,

TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable? Why this error and what is the solution?
Code:
class SuperMeta:
    def __call__(self, classname, supers, classdict):
        print('In SuperMeta.call: ', classname, supers, classdict, sep='\n...')
        Class = self.__New__(classname, supers, classdict)
        self.__Init__(Class, classname, supers, classdict)
class SubMeta(SuperMeta):
    def __New__(self, classname, supers, classdict):
        print('In SubMeta.new: ', classname, supers, classdict, sep='\n...')
        return type(classname, supers, classdict)
    def __Init__(self, Class, classname, supers, classdict):
        print('In SubMeta init:', classname, supers, classdict, sep='\n...')
        print('...init class object:', list(Class.__dict__.keys()))
class Eggs:
    pass
print('making class')
class Spam(Eggs, metaclass=SubMeta()):
    data = 1
    def meth(self, arg):
        pass
print('making instance')
X = Spam()

print('data:', X.data)
Output:

As I have no idea what you are up to I can only list some adjustments you 
probably need to make:

- __init__() and __new__() are spelt in lowercase.
- do not instantiate the metaclass:
  class Spam(Eggs, metaclass=SubMeta): 
      ...
- The metaclasses of Spam and Eggs must share a common base. 
  This can be achieved with
  class SuperMeta(type): 
      ...
