Hi!
I'm making some test using SQLObject with MySQL and I found that BLOBCol
is using a TEXT column. When I take a look to the code (col.py) I see:
class SOBLOBCol(SOStringCol):
def createValidators(self):
return [BinaryValidator(name=self.name)] + \
super(SOBLOBCol, self).createValidators()
def _mysqlType(self):
length = self.length
varchar = self.varchar
if length >= 2**24:
return varchar and "LONGTEXT" or "LONGBLOB"
if length >= 2**16:
return varchar and "MEDIUMTEXT" or "MEDIUMBLOB"
if length >= 2**8:
return varchar and "TEXT" or "BLOB"
return varchar and "TINYTEXT" or "TINYBLOB"
Since varchar is set to "auto"[1] by default, SQLObject is using TEXT as
a BLOBCol. Beside the "auto" thing which look like a bug (is it?), why it
is even the posibility to use a TEXT-like column with a BLOBCol in MySQL?
Is this a bug too?
For now, I'm using: blob = BLOBCol(length=2**24, varchar=False), but it
doesn't look natural at all.
[1] col.py again:
class SOStringLikeCol(SOCol):
"""A common ancestor for SOStringCol and SOUnicodeCol"""
def __init__(self, **kw):
self.length = popKey(kw, 'length')
self.varchar = popKey(kw, 'varchar', 'auto')
