This patch provides full introspection functionality for ado_mssql
backends. It was tested on MSDE and SQL Server 2000 using adodbapi v.
2.0.1, Python 2.4.2, and Python 2.4.3. Using this patch, I was able to:
* Obtain a list of tables from the database.
* Obtain field information for each table.
* Map each field to its corresponding Django model type (including
!AutoFields).
* Retrieve relationship information.
* Retrieve Index information.
I tested this patch on two fairly large legacy databases, and the
resulting model definitions were correct in both instances.
When time permits, I'll also test the patch on SQL Server Express and SQL
Server 2005.
'''Note:''' This patch is dependent upon the changes in Ticket #2358.
I've tested the changes in that ticket, and so far I haven't run into any
problems. The attached patch actually improves on the introspection
changes introduced that ticket.
