I can't use file __init__ to store shared variables and classes in the package

[AlekseyPython]

I placed global variables in file __init__ for each package. Now I get an error when I try to access these attributes:

Error:
AttributeError: 'method-wrapper' object has no attribute 'FormsDirectory'

There is a single line in the __init__ file of the Forms package:

FormsDirectory = '/home/alesha/eclipse-workspace/AnalysisData/Forms/'

In another file (where I want to use this variable) I wrote:

from Forms import __init__ as MyForms
d = MyForms.FormsDirectory // ERROR !!!

I looked in the debugger- mode: indeed, the variable MyForms has the type methodwrapper... Why?

Why not just import Forms?

import Forms
d = Forms.FormsDirectory

Why not just import Forms?

import Forms
d = Forms.FormsDirectory

Thank you!
