Hi,
Regarding to the discussion some days ago with the SQLAlchemy Zope3
integration, I still have problems with retrieving the session. I currently
use a utility for the engine, which seems to work well.

However, for retrieving the session, I tried to use the following pattern
(many thanks to Michael Bayer, btw.):

-------- database module -----------
SASession = scoped_session(sessionmaker(
   transactional = True,
   autoflush = True,
   extension = ZopeTransactionExtension()))

def getSASession():
   SASession.remove()
   engine = getUtility(ISAEngineUtility).getEngine()
   s = SASession()
   s.bind = engine
   return s
--------------------------------------------

In my application, I then use getSASession() to retrieve my session.

However, what I think is not that beautiful is the "s.bind = engine" part. Are
there any suggestions how to improve this?


FTR, my suggestion here is to configure/tear down sessions upon request boundaries, as described in http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/04/session.html#unitofwork_contextual_lifespan .
