Hello Villas, unfortunately other problems to this game...
I used archiving, and so this type of table definitions
db.define_table('asset_archive',
Field('current_record', db.asset),
db.asset,migrate='asset_archive.table')
but I have the same problem regarding FOREIGN KEYS...no way to recreate the
tables.
Do I have to give up the record archiving? Waht do you think?
If you can, please can you explain the meaning of fake_migrate? I never
used and in the book is not very well explained.
Thank you
