I want to transform an SQL-only application to a MiddleKit python based one. Some of the already existing tables heavily use the set(..) feature of MySQL for all kinds of flags. Note: It's internally stored as a bitfield of up to 32 named boolean switches and has a similar syntax to enum(..)
My Question: Would you suggest to add a new AttributeType to MiddleKit to match those existing structures? It'll become a dictionary of booleans and with SQL engines that don't support SET(..) it could be stored as a group of boolean fields, sharing the same name prefix. Or is it better to keep the python side simple and convert these tables to others with lots of single boolean fields that are compatible to the established persistent techniques ? Maybe someone else has thought about this before or even did it ? ===== kind regards, Thomas Kumlehn PIXEL PARTNER (R) mobile +44 7960 384334 __________________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
