ActiveMapper is fine for doing basic stuff, but it doesn't allow you to access all the capabilities of sqlalchemy. I've tried on a couple projects, but I always seem to run into a case that ActiveMapper doesn't support, which means I need to redo the model in standard sqlalchemy (as relations seem to behave screwily when dealing with half ActiveMapper and half not). I now just skip it and do straight SQLAlchemy, the extra typing is worth it. > chosed_table = Table(_user_chose_, metadata, autoload=True) It's not that inefficient, the difference is a single extra runtime query per table to query the table structure, you don't pay a penalty on every access. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
