Hehe. You are probably correct, although I can't find any similar examples for Sequel in it's docs or when I google it. Either way, the hard part wasn't necessarily constructing the SQL queries, the hard part was making the API such that subqueries would be possible with RDBMS' that support it *while* also not tightly coupling DM to how RDBMS' work. If DataMapper only had to support RDBMS', everything would be much simpler and we would be doing this forever too :P > Cool stuff anyhow.

I look forward to seeing it. -- Dan (dkubb) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DataMapper" group.
