Why? Gut reaction is that that would be wrong: the 'session' is supposed to be an ephemeral thing, for hooking up the gnc-engine to some particular data store. In particular, I've tried to design things so that one book could sit in several sessions, so that e.g. one could implement a copy command, or mirroring. Also, I'd always envisioned that if there was a networked gnucash, then it could work when disconnected, and resync backup with the backend when the connection was re-established (and meanwhile save to a temp file). If you moved the entity table to session, then you'd loose all of your data if a session is torn down .... as currently happens (??) when you save to a different file than you used to save to ... --linas > > Modified Files: > > gnc-book.h gnc-book-p.h > > Log Message: > > need to expose the entity table -- pub 1024D/01045933 2001-02-01 Linas Vepstas (Labas!) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP Key fingerprint = 8305 2521 6000 0B5E 8984 3F54 64A9 9A82 0104 5933 _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gnucash.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
