Hi all,

I created a table:

>>> joins.createTable('/','spikes',{'t20k':pt.Int32Col(),'tetrode':pt.UInt8Col(),
>>>  'unit':pt.UInt8Col()},'Spike times')

I populated it

>>> joins.root.spikes.append(zip(np.arange(100),np.zeros(100), 3*np.ones(100)))

now if I do

>>> joins.root.spikes.cols.tetrode[:] = np.ones(100)

I can see the updated value (all ones instead of zeros)

If I fetch all the table in memory,

>>> joins.root.spikes[:]

I still see only the original zeros, i.e. the column update has not propagated

If I add another 100 rows like above and check
joins.root.spikes.cols.tetrode, then I only see the original ones, and
not the added zeros

In the middle I .flush() table and file abundantly; that changes nothing.

This I did following the instruction in
http://www.pytables.org/moin/HintsForSQLUsers
(search for the line:
tbl.cols.temperature[6:13:3] = cols[0]
)

Is this the intended behaviour? It's driving me crazy.

However

>>> joins.root.spikes.col('tetrode')

sees the same as joins.root.spikes[:]

but cannot be assigned to.


Álvaro.
