Yes, I've read the document. I'm looking for some examples.

As I said, I have a class, C1, whose entities have no ancestors. I want to
query a particular entity from it, modify, and put it back, for example,

item = C1.gql("WHERE p1 = :a AND p2 < :b ORDER BY p2", a = None, b =
today).fetch(1)
item.p1 = now
item.put()

Both p1 and p2 are datetime. How can I build this into a transaction? Is
there a way I can give the entities a 'place holder' ancestor so I can later
use an 'ancestor filter' in the query to satisfy the requirement?

Thanks,

Will
