I couldn't try the nicest way, because I don't know the names of the data dictionary tables & columns.
Also, I'm not sure if a SQL SELECT would reference them in the same way as one references an ordinary data table. E.g. if the MySQL meta-table that stores all the user-defined tables were named "all_tables", would the SELECT statement be simply: "SELECT * FROM all_tables"? Or is some sort of prefix or modifier or something needed to denote these special tables? Any help on these names and references? - Ken > -----Original Message----- > From: Dieter Maurer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, June 01, 2005 4:30 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Cc: zope-db@zope.org > Subject: Re: [Zope-DB] Accessing the MySQL data dictionary > > Ken Winter wrote at 2005-5-31 21:21 -0400: > > ... > >The nicest way would be to just do SQL SELECTs against the data > dictionary > >tables. > > What happened when you tried the nicest way? ;-) > > -- > Dieter _______________________________________________ Zope-DB mailing list Zope-DB@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-db
