It's mentioned here: http://turbogears.org/2.0/docs/main/Wiki20/wiki20.html#initializing-the-tables
and is somewhat described here: http://turbogears.org/2.1/docs/main/Config/SQLAlchemy.html?highlight=commit but we should definitely do better. Heck, I even wonder if the benifit of the transaction manger is less than the cost of people getting confused because the standard SQLAlchemy way does not work. Perhaps we should make it optional at some point. I do think it's a great feature when you have multiple databases, or when you want to delay some other actions until you know the commit went in ok. --Mark Ramm On Fri, Jul 2, 2010 at 6:04 PM, Guyren G Howe <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks. > > I'd like to ask: is this documented somewhere?
