This problem does not relate to C++ and even less to databases, so it has nothing to do with SOCI. Right? :-) Is it fair to expect the SOCI project to solve somebody's local desktop configuration issues? > (once, but I've not > done it yet). Heh - migration to SVN has similar properties: it can be done once, but we've not done it yet. :-) > I like current tests, except the lack of central configuration so > I could put all connection settings to soci_test.conf and then run > all-at-once using make check. What prevents you from providing the connection parameters as arguments to tests? If you need to store them in a config file, you can do it without involving the tests themselves.

It does not really matter. The Python module would not be strictly part of the SOCI core library, but rather an add-on. It can have its own rules and conventions without any relation to the core part of the project. I agree that Boost.Python is probably the best choice for this kind of work.
