I intentionally left this open :-) We should have a vote on it. Let's gather votes for say two weeks and then see what the outcome is. Here's my vote: +1 on qmark +0 on named +0 on numeric -1 on format -1 on pyformat >> * +1 on requiring an interface to adjust the param style on a >> per connection or even per cursor basis, so that it's easy >> to setup an implementation to the mandatory param style >> (in case the module defaults to another param style for backwards >> compatibility reasons) >> >> This interface would have to support at least the mandatory >> param style. > > +1, let's discuss what that interface should look like. We basically have two options: * use an attribute which is inherited from connections to cursors * use a get/set method approach with much the same meaning For simplicity, I'd be in favor of adding a settable .paramstyle attribute. >> * -1 on doing auto-detection of param styles at .execute() >> call time based on parsing the SQL statement > > I now agree with -1 on making auto-detection mandatory as long as there > is a way to turn it on.
