I am trying to figure out how to get extra engine specific params from the db url.
What I'd like is a url object that populates the standard attributes: self.drivername = drivername self.username = username self.password = password self.host = host self.port = port self.database= database Then has another dictionary of "any other connect params" that were passed.. So firebird://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:port/e:/temp/mydb.gdb?init=200 would have url with self.extra_params = {'init':'200'} URL.translate_connect_args just seems totally odd to me.. Like I give it a list of attributes that I want extracted into a dict.. but, I guess I have to know the order of elements in attribute_names in this method. strange.. I digress. The engine.url._parse_keyvalue_args method seems to be half of what I want.. but make_url doesn't use it.. In fact, nothing does. looks like I need to submit a patch for url.py to allow extra args to get parsed out of a url. -- Brad Clements, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (315)268-1000 http://www.murkworks.com AOL-IM or SKYPE: BKClements ------------------------------------------------------- All the advantages of Linux Managed Hosting--Without the Cost and Risk!
