that's not really the best way to go here. in SQLA 0.5, just do this: engine = create_engine(...) dialect = engine.dialect print mycolumn.type.dialect_impl(dialect).get_col_spec() in 0.6 it's easier: print mycolumn.type.compile(dialect) > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
