SQLObject 0.9.8
by Oleg Broytmann Dec. 1, 2008

Dec. 1, 2008

Hello! I'm pleased to announce version 0.9.8, a minor bug fix release of SQLObject. What is SQLObject ================= SQLObject is an object-relational mapper. Your database tables are described as classes, and rows are instances of those classes. SQLObject is meant to be easy to use and quick to get started with. SQLObject supports a number of backends: MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Firebird, Sybase, MSSQL and MaxDB (also known as SAPDB). Where is SQLObject ================== Site: http://sqlobject.org Development: http://sqlobject.org/devel/ Mailing list: https://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/sqlobject-discuss Archives: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.sqlobject Download: http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/SQLObject/0.9.8 News and changes: http://sqlobject.org/News.html What's New ========== News since 0.9.7 ---------------- * Changed interpretation of strings in the DB URI for boolean parameters: '0', 'no', 'off' and 'false' are now interpreted as False. * Fixed a bug with incorrect handling of calls like connectionForURI(dburi, cache=False) when dburi already contains some parameters in the URI. * Convert decimal.to_eng_string() to str to work around a bug in Python 2.5.2; see http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2008-March/078189.html * Added test_default_style.py. * Fixed a minor bug in SQLiteConnection that fails to parse Enum columns. For a more complete list, please see the news: http://sqlobject.org/News.html Oleg. -- Oleg Broytmann http://phd.pp.ru/ phd(a)phd.pp.ru Programmers don't die, they just GOSUB without RETURN.

lockfile 0.4
by skip＠pobox.com Dec. 1, 2008

Dec. 1, 2008

I've just released lockfile 0.4. I separated the test code from the lockfile module so the module itself should work on Python 2.4. What is lockfile? The lockfile module exports a FileLock class which provides a simple API for locking files. Unlike the Windows msvcrt.locking function, the Unix fcntl.flock, fcntl.lockf and the deprecated posixfile module, the API is identical across both Unix (including Linux and Mac) and Windows platforms. The lock mechanism relies on the atomic nature of the link (on Unix) and mkdir (On Windows) system calls. -- Skip Montanaro - skip(a)pobox.com - http://smontanaro.dyndns.org/
