Hi all, I attached a snapshot of my current source of the Firebird backend for SA to ticket #410. This version passes several more unittests, in particular wrt the supported types: BLOBs and Unicode should work now.
Since I'd be very sad knowing I'm breaking someone else project, I'd like to hear a voice from some other FB user, before asking Michael to accept this work. There are mainly two areas that still need some work: a) better handling of dialect 1 (a.k.a. Interbase 5.x) datatypes b) correct the way the backend deals with "case-sensitive" a) requires some way to reach the actual connection from the dialect.type_descriptor(), that needs to know which dialect the connection is talking to give the right answer. b) is now alleviated, in dialect.has_table(), by using the LIKE operator instead of a straight "=" on the table name; more, the dialect.reflecttable() now initialize the "case_sensitive" flag on each column, but this clearly needs more work, mainly to better understand the whole logic behind "case_sensitive" on my part.
