>From the SQLObject documentation: "Select results are generators, which are lazily evaluated. So the SQL is only executed when you iterate over the select results, or if you use list() to force the result to be executed. When you iterate over the select results, rows are fetched one at a time. This way you can iterate over large results without keeping the entire result set in memory. You can also do things like .reversed() without fetching and reversing the entire result -- instead, SQLObject can change the SQL that is sent so you get equivalent results.
You can also slice select results. This modifies the SQL query, so peeps[:10] will result in LIMIT 10 being added to the end of the SQL query. If the slice cannot be performed in the SQL (e.g., peeps[:-10]), then the select is executed, and the slice is performed on the list of results. This will generally only happen when you use negative indexes." --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
