Hi

I have done the following:


class Affiliation(Base):
    __tablename__       = "affiliations"
    Id                  = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
    FullName            = Column(Unicode(255), index = True)
    discriminator       = Column('type', Unicode(20))
    __mapper_args__     = {'polymorphic_on': discriminator}

                                                                                
   
class Person(Affiliation):
    __tablename__       = 'persons'
    __mapper_args__     = {'polymorphic_identity' : u'person'} 
    Id                  = Column(Integer,ForeignKey('affiliations.Id'), 
primary_key=True)

    
class Company(Affiliation):
    __tablename__       = 'companies'
    __mapper_args__     = {'polymorphic_identity' : u'company'} 
    Id                  = Column(Integer,ForeignKey('affiliations.Id'), 
primary_key=True)

which is straight foreward.

What I want do do now is a bit more troublesome, I have been trying many 
different things but....

class relation(Base):

Parent          =   reference to one of the Affiliations
Child           =   reference to one of the Affiliations
Relation_type = column(Integer)                          (like two persons can 
be Father and Son, Two companies can be supplier and customer)


It would be very nice if I can change the Affiliation class to self reference 
M:N

Problem with this is that both Parent and child (or "left and right "side") 
have to be checked and updated
