You might be able to do what you are looking for through column_properties and eager loads, as described at: http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/05/mappers.html#sql-expressions-as-mapped-attributes http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/05/ormtutorial.html#working-with-related-objects http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/05/mappers.html#configuring-loader-strategies-lazy-loading-eager-loading -- Gaƫtan de Menten http://openhex.org --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SQLElixir" group.
