Thanks for the elaborated replies.

Is something like this possible, that the tables are autoloaded, along with 
foreign keys, but the relations
are defined in the code. I think this is what is done in SQLAlchemy when you 
do autoload?

So, something like this?

class Employee(ActiveMapper):
      class mapping:
          __table__ = 'employees'
          __autoload__ = True
          dependants = one_to_many('Dependant', backref='employee')

class Dependant(ActiveMapper):
      class mapping:
          __table__ = 'dependants'
          __autoload__ = True

Why am I so impressed on autoload is that one does not have to repeat the 
schema at both the database and the code. The DRY principle, basically.

I could not find out (after some heavy searches!) how to put this message in 
the existing thread. Trying to mail the message with the same subject. 
Pardon the stupidity and let me know how to extend a thread.

Thanks
Sanjay
