Hi,
I have just started playing with Django and found it a pleasure to set
up web site (even just a toy system so far) using the frame work. Thank
you very much!
I have a data model case that I think probably is quite common to other
people too, and I did not find a way to do it with current Django, so I
wonder whether the developers can take a look of it.
My situation is:
I have quite a few data model classes that share some common fields, so
I have the following model code:
--------------------
class Common(models.Model):
# common fields
......
class Model_A(Common):
# extra fields
......
class Model_B(Common):
# extra fields
......
-------------------
That works, except that a database table will be created for "Common",
which will never be used by itself.
So I will just keep "Common" table empty, not a big deal. But, to make
it more elegant (which I suspect a lot of Python programmers are
obsessed about), can we add some kind of mechanism to tell Django that
"Common" is an "abstract model" that is not intended to be used by
itself, so no table needs to be created?
Thank you for giving it a thought.
Best regards.
Wanrong
