I of course want to avoid trashing the base SQLA > install, but can't find an override location in the object tree > from my session or engine or anything. so far i have found these ways to hack somebeody else's source: a) inherit the class, replace whatever, use the new version - works if it is just you using the new-stuff b) complete replacement: import thatclass; thatclass.method = your-own-version c) partial hacks: inspect.get_source( that method); replace some lines in that with yours; compile; replace the method with the new version. this works if u have sources; if its just *.pyc, sorry.
i have all of these applied to various pieces of SAcode; as for c) i have one to niceify the select-echos and another to replace dicts with ordered ones for repeatability - as michael has not accepted patches/idea of these, i'm patching them myself. The echoing one is really useful. see dbcook.util.hacksrc and it's usage in dbcook.usage.sa_hack4repeatability and sa_hack4echo https://dbcook.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/dbcook/trunk/dbcook/ http://pypi.python.org/pypi/dbcook/0.2 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
