i believe update has always been defined as all of the contents of an entry being replaced with the contents of the call.
i don't believe there has ever been a way to update individual attributes, and only individual attributes, of an item; smallest access to an item returns an atom-entry and its attributes. that said, any delay-difference in updating only one attribute verses updating the item entry with all its existing attributes plus the changed attribute is probably rather small. see also: http://code.google.com/apis/base/docs/2.0/developers_guide_protocol.html#Updating --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Base Data API" group.
