Anssi also suggested that Django should raise an error when attempting to make database queries while a broken transaction is in progress. This would improve cross-database consistency, normalizing to PostgreSQL's behavior. Here's a patch implementing this idea: https://github.com/RichardOfWard/django/commit/cb46c75db275db59b54511c090286255bd9cc46d Full discussion: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/django-developers /ACLQRF-71s8/discussion -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/21134#comment:1> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
