SQLObject »»» Blog

SQLObject 0.7b1 is released; get it at the Cheese Shop. The News file isn't at all up to date (it will be before 0.7final), so there's no summary of what all has changed. Also, installation has changed some and there may be issues with that; if you have problems please email the mailing list so we can work out the kinks.

We believe the code itself to be quite stable.

There's some slight rearrangement in the SQLObject repository, to use a more conventional layout. The previous location was http://svn.colorstudy.com/trunk/SQLObject. The current location of the trunk is http://svn.colorstudy.com/SQLObject/trunk.

If you have any checked-out repositories, you can fix them with this command (while in the working directory):

svn switch --relocate http://svn.colorstudy.com/trunk/SQLObject http://svn.colorstudy.com/SQLObject/trunk

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Ben Bangert has written a post on using SQLObject with FormEncode. FormEncode is a package related to SQLObject that does form validation and population. (Incidentally, SQLObject 0.7 will require FormEncode.)

Anders Pearson explains how to escape to custom SQL queries.

Julian Krause is planning to write a WSGI authentication middleware, with a SQLObject backend.
