Hi! I found a quite strange behavior. Reproduction is simple.
Setup: selfref=Table("selfref", metadata, Column("id",Integer, primary_key=True), Column("id_par",Integer, ForeignKey("selfref.id")) ) class SelfRef(object):pass mapper(SelfRef, selfref, properties={ "children":relation(SelfRef, cascade="all") }) Following construction is fine: sr1 = SelfRef() sr1.children.append(SelfRef()) but sr1 = SelfRef().children.append(SelfRef()) will raise Traceback (most recent call last): File "./selfref.py", line 22, in ? sr1 = SelfRef().children.append(SelfRef()) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/sqlalchemy/attributes.py", line 386, in append self.__setrecord(item) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/sqlalchemy/attributes.py", line 362, in __setrecord self.attr.append_event(event, self.obj, item) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/sqlalchemy/attributes.py", line 261, in append_event obj._state['modified'] = True AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute '_state' and that is a little bit odd because both constructions are logically identical, right?
