I can't go with that, there has to be some way to plug in a URL handler. if you really need to send that raw string straight through you can use the creator() function. Its really not a big deal to maintain if we just make a modular URLHandler class that given a sqlalchemy.URL and a DBAPI, returns a connection. Anytime someone has some new goofy string they need, they can provide one of these, we add it to the MSSQL dialect, and we wont have to change it again, since it will be keyed to a name. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
