It is frustrating, when you have an app, working perfectly with sqlite, and during deployment you run into Exceptions that are database dependent, like using the word left as a column name.... or running an empty IN(belongs) SQL statement that runs perfectly on sqlite, but crashes on postgres.
Maybe each database backend could specify their own reserved keywords/idiosyncrasies and when working with sqllite we can define a target database engine, so it can catch these? Since reserved words differ between databases. Its more for convience of one click-ish deployment than anything else. -Thadeus On Thu, Dec 31, 2009 at 9:47 AM, mdipierro <[email protected]> wrote: > It will be easier to add something like it. > > On Dec 31, 1:04 am, Thadeus Burgess <[email protected]> wrote: >> Can the new DAL have a list of protected keywords for the database and >> throw and exception if you try to define a column with the keyword? >> >> -Thadeus > > -- > > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "web2py-users" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/web2py?hl=en. > > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
