Mike,

I made the assumption parameters would always be a dictionary:

from sqlalchemy.interfaces import ConnectionProxy
class PostgresProxy(ConnectionProxy):
    """
    Low level connection proxy to change all empty string '' to None,
so that
    postgres and Oracle behave the same for us
    """
    def cursor_execute(self, execute, cursor, statement, parameters,
context, executemany):
        for param, value in parameters.items():
            if value == u'':
                parameters[param] = None
        return execute(cursor, statement, parameters, context)

Apparently, for some circumstances, (maybe for many to many?),
parameters is a tuple?

AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'items'


Can you explain when (if time, why)?  How can I fix my code?

Thanks!

Kent
