This doesn't look right to me... If you *create* (aka INSERT) a record, how will it return SQLObjectNotFound? It should return that on a SELECT (get, by*, select, etc.)... You probably want it reversed. >> > result = Activity.byName(name) >> > if result is None: >> > result = Activity(name=name) >> > return result > > > that works but your just working around the exception mecanism... going back > to what was before and in computers you normally don't want to do that :) I didn't get your comment, Jorge. He's not work arounding any exception here: if one exception is raised, then the program will let it propagate without any problem. He's just checking if there's some return or not and then dealing with it... -- Jorge Godoy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
