Hi All, I wish to do an aliased join similar to the last example in the section http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/04/ormtutorial.html#datamapping_joins
>>> session.query(User).\ ... join('addresses', aliased=True).filter(Address.email_address=='[EMAIL PROTECTED]').\ ... join('addresses', aliased=True).filter(Address.email_address=='[EMAIL PROTECTED]') Except that I want to provide my own Alias for the Address table so I can compare fields from the two aliased address tables, e.g. >>> Address_1 = Address.table.alias() >>> Address_2 = Address.table.alias() >>> session.query(User).\ ... join(Address_1).\ ... join(Address_2).\ ... filter(Address_1.email_address>Address_2.email_address) This fails because the 'join' function above expects a property to join on, rather than a table or table alias. I've tried to transform it into a select_from query: >>> User.query.select_from(User.table.join(Address_1).join(Address_2))./ ... filter(Address_1.email_address>Address_2.email_address) but then you lose the ability to add_entities; the following doesn't work: >>> User.query.add_entity(Address_1).select_from(User.table.join(Address_1).join(Address_2))./ ... filter(Address_1.email_address>Address_2.email_address) Any ideas on how to do this correctly?
