Hi Vernon, I am so glad your gave me such a good choice. But what I really want to use is sqlalchemy, and it is sqlalchemy asked for MySQLdb. So I have 3 choices here: 1. use other driver like adodbapi or mysql connector for .net, however, in this way, I can't use any ORM(I dont feel like writing one). 2. hack sqlalchemy and make it support a .net connector. I think it is risky. 3. install MySQLdb anyway.
As I don't have much time, so I chose mysql connector for .net, it can be downloaded on www.mysql.com and easy to use. 2010/4/28 Vernon Cole <vernondc...@gmail.com> > David: > If I may humbly suggest: don't use mySQLdb. > Usehttp://sourceforge.net/projects/adodbapiwhich works very well with > IronPython, thank you, and is also fully db api > 2.0 compliant. mySQL is one of the three database engines, along with > ACCESS (jet) and MS-SQL which I use to test it. > For IronPython it uses the dumbest possible installation method: unzip > the package and copy it to the site-packages folder of your choice.
