There are a few such libraries out there which take care of such conversions. The standard itself cannot provide an example implementation. > But of course i need to know the paramstyle of the database. I didn't > found any way to retrieve it from the connexion.

We might want to extend this to connections and cursors as well in DB APi 3.0, to make it easier to write such conversion routines, and then perhaps also make those attributes writable, so that the paramstyle can be adjusted on a per connection and cursor basis. > Is there a project to have one paramstyle mandatory for all the > database ?

For DB-API 3.0 there's a proposal to make support for the two paramstyles 'named' and 'qmark' mandatory (but leave all existing styles in the standard), or reduce the number of standard paramstyles to these two. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Dec 03 2012) >>> Python Projects, Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope/Plone.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ 2012-11-28: Released eGenix mx Base 3.2.5 ... http://egenix.com/go36 2013-01-22: Python Meeting Duesseldorf ... 50 days to go ::: Try our new mxODBC.Connect Python Database Interface for free ! :::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.
