I have "blindly" changed the symbol_set for integer, bigint, floats and am running my server like that since 1-2 days. (commits, of course, are public in my pg84 branch). It surely breaks quite some code. (although I put a "compatibility" snippet there). I know this feature (allowing Null/None at numeric fields) has been desirable. But it will need porting for many modules, it will have side-effects. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openerp-expert-framework Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openerp-expert-framework More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
