it works, and the != test that i tried also works. i wonder if it has
to do with how i tested the constuction? my test was of a dynamic query
built like:
def build_query(field, op, value):
"""
Builds the web2py query object for a given field
"""
if op == 'equals':
return field == value
elif op == 'not equal':
return field != value
elif op == 'greater than':
return field > value
elif op == 'less than':
return field < value
elif op == 'starts with':
return field.like(value+'%')
elif op == 'ends with':
return field.like('%'+value)
elif op == 'contains':
return field.like('%'+value+'%')
now this is still just a local environment. i can deploy and test it on
real GAE tomorrow. is there another particular test you would like me
to try?
thanks for fixing the other issues!
