Hi,
While doing backend testing for new DB2 adapter (I am developing it), I
found that in CREATE TABLE DDL generation, it contains some non-standard
SQL syntax.
Here is one example of model.
{{{
class User(models.Model):
first_name = models.CharField(max_length=20, null=False)
last_name = models.CharField(max_length=20, null=True)
class Meta:
db_table = "temp_user"
}}}
For the column '''last_name''', the SQL that gets generated is
'''LAST_NAME VARCHAR(20) NULL'''. The trailing '''NULL''' is not a
standard SQL. This can be validated by the SQL validator tool -
http://developer.mimer.com/validator/parser200x/index.tml Needless to say,
this will fail in DB2 and so too in Oracle.
I find only one method in the docs which deals with the table DDL
generation '''BaseDatabaseCreation.sql_create_model'''.
Regards,[[BR]]
