There are many GAE types that one may want to use. Today I needed StringListProperty so I extended the web2py GAE apy so that you can have a field of type
db.define_table('person',Field('names','.StringListProperty()')) and you can do db.person.insert(names=['Massimo','Max']) db(db.person.names=='Massimo').select() Basically you can put any native type as a web2py type just put it in a string and start it with a '.'. You can also pass arguments this way. It is ugly but works. It is ugly because I'd rather pass an object than a string. It works because a type has to be a string. It is experimental because when the new DAL comes this should be replaced by a better API. This will not stay backward compatible.
