Hi everyone, I'm trying to implement an InsertFromSelect workaround to handle the identity insert issue of SQL server. This is more or less what I'm doing:
class InsertFromSelect(Executable, ClauseElement) : def __init__(self, table, select) : self.table = table self.select = select @compiler.compiles(InsertFromSelect, "mssql") def visit_insert_from_select(element, compiler, **kw) : tab_name = compiler.process(element.table, asfrom=True) q = "SET IDENTITY_INSERT %s ON;" %(tab_name) q += "INSERT INTO %s (%s) %s;" % (tab_name, ', '.join([compiler.process(c) for c in element.table.c]), compiler.process(element.select)) q += "SET IDENTITY_INSERT %s OFF;" %(tab_name) return q insert_from_select = InsertFromSelect(new_table, old_table)) engine.execute(insert_from_select) The code is executed without error, but 'new_table' is not filled. Important: in my code I cannot use the session to execute the query. Can anyone point me out what I'm doing wrong?
