I am so confused on this one. I use AutoconnectHub to set the
_connection attribute of a SQLObject class (call it modelroot), which
is inheritable. I then have a bunch of other SQLObject classes which
inherit from modelroot. Now, everything works fine when I run the the
turbogears server normally - that is, all my derived classes properly
inherit the _connection and connect to the database without a hitch.
So I've now tried to create unit tests for the derived classes. In
those tests (which derive from unittest), I set the connection in the
setUp() method. Problem is, no matter how I try and set the
connection, I get this:
Traceback (most recent call last):

I've used the following lines to try and set up the connection in the
setUp() routines (where db_connection holds the database uri and hub is
set to AutoConnectHub()):
from sqlobject import *
from turbogears.database import *
sqlhub.processConnection = connectionForURI(db_connection)
sqlhub.threadConnection = connectionForURI(db_connection)
hub.processConnection = connectionForURI(db_connection)
hub.threadConnection = connectionForURI(db_connection)
database.set_db_uri(db_connection)
It's the same error every time. What the heck am I doing wrong?
Also, what is the most "correct" way to do this?
