Re: [sqlalchemy] Re: Error while using CAST

2011-09-14 Thread Mike Conley
Don't know what database you are using, but this looks like you are trying
to cast the string 'testing' to an integer and the database engine says you
can't do that.

RE: [sqlalchemy] Re: Error while using CAST

2011-09-14 Thread King Simon-NFHD78
Does this work instead:

table.update().values(empno = cast(table.c.empno,Integer)).execute()

ie. a bare 'empno' inside your cast expression is just referring to a python 
variable 'empno', which you've probably set to the value 'testing' at some 
other point in your code. You need the column object table.c.empno instead

Hope that helps,

Simon

 sqlyog,it works fine but when tried with sqlalchemy it didn't.
 update mytable set EmpMaster = cast(empno as UNSIGNED INTEGER)
