Hi....for this behavior, options include: - monkeypatch the dialect to return the Float type instead of the Decimal type, by modifying the dialect's ischema_names dict. Unfortunately there's not yet a standard API for this, and while most dialects have this dict at the module level, others have it at class level. So this is a pretty hacky solution that might even break when the dialect refactor is merged. - after the Table is reflected, loop through every column, check for isinstance(column.type, Numeric), set the "asdecimal" flag to false. Simplistic but effective. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
