Its a straightforward path to produce but its an 0.5 and possibly not 0.5.0 thing. If base64 encoding within the bind_processor() can fix MS-SQL for now, I'd say that would be the approach for the time being. I guess you've never gotten testtypes.py BinaryTest to run with MS-SQL ? I would definitely want some test coverage in test/ dialect/mssql.py for this, I'm pretty shocked nobody has had this problem before. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
