new copy is assigned the actual type of the compared column. Previously,
this logic would occur on the given :func:`.bindparam` in place.
Additionally, a similar process now occurs for :func:`.bindparam` constructs
passed to :meth:`.ValuesBase.values` for a :class:`.Insert` or
:class:`.Update` construct. [ticket:2850]
e.g. values that are normally bound parameters but due to context must
be rendered as strings, typically within DDL constructs such as
CHECK constraints and indexes (note that "literal bind" values
become used by DDL as of 🎫`2742`). A new method
:meth:`.TypeEngine.literal_processor` serves as the base, and
:meth:`.TypeDecorator.process_literal_param` is added to allow wrapping
of a native literal rendering method. [ticket:2838]
- enhance _get_colparams so that we can send flags like literal_binds into
INSERT statements
- add support in PG for inspecting standard_conforming_strings
- add a new series of roundtrip tests based on INSERT of literal plus SELECT
for basic literal rendering in dialect suite
so that the custom type isn't exposed to an operation that is against the
"impl" type's constraint, [ticket:2842]

add a __reduce__() there....pickling of expressions is less and less something
that's very viable...
all :attr:`.SchemaItem.info` dictionaries from all :class:`.SchemaItem`
objects within the structure including columns, constraints,

are copies, they are independent of the original dictionary.
Previously, only the ``.info`` dictionary of :class:`.Column` was transferred
within this operation, and it was only linked in place, not copied.

instead of relying upon various ``quote=True`` flags being passed around,
these flags are converted into rich string objects with quoting information
included at the point at which they are passed to common schema constructs
like :class:`.Table`, :class:`.Column`, etc. This solves the issue
of various methods that don't correctly honor the "quote" flag such
as :meth:`.Engine.has_table` and related methods. The :class:`.quoted_name`
object is a string subclass that can also be used explicitly if needed;
the object will hold onto the quoting preferences passed and will
also bypass the "name normalization" performed by dialects that
standardize on uppercase symbols, such as Oracle, Firebird and DB2.
The upshot is that the "uppercase" backends can now work with force-quoted
names, such as lowercase-quoted names and new reserved words.

to rely upon server generated version identifiers, using triggers
or other database-provided versioning features, by passing the value
``False``. The ORM will use RETURNING when available to immediately
load the new version identifier, else it will emit a second SELECT.
[ticket:2793]
- The ``eager_defaults`` flag of :class:`.Mapper` will now allow the
newly generated default values to be fetched using an inline
RETURNING clause, rather than a second SELECT statement, for backends
that support RETURNING.
- Added a new variant to :meth:`.ValuesBase.returning` called
:meth:`.ValuesBase.return_defaults`; this allows arbitrary columns
to be added to the RETURNING clause of the statement without interfering
with the compilers usual "implicit returning" feature, which is used to
efficiently fetch newly generated primary key values. For supporting
backends, a dictionary of all fetched values is present at
:attr:`.ResultProxy.returned_defaults`.
- add a glossary entry for RETURNING
- add documentation for version id generation, [ticket:867]
the import structure of many core modules.
``sqlalchemy.schema`` and ``sqlalchemy.types``
remain in the top-level package, but are now just lists of names
that pull from within ``sqlalchemy.sql``. Their implementations
are now broken out among ``sqlalchemy.sql.type_api``, ``sqlalchemy.sql.sqltypes``,
``sqlalchemy.sql.schema`` and ``sqlalchemy.sql.ddl``, the last of which was
moved from ``sqlalchemy.engine``. ``sqlalchemy.sql.expression`` is also
a namespace now which pulls implementations mostly from ``sqlalchemy.sql.elements``,
``sqlalchemy.sql.selectable``, and ``sqlalchemy.sql.dml``.
Most of the "factory" functions
used to create SQL expression objects have been moved to classmethods
or constructors, which are exposed in ``sqlalchemy.sql.expression``
using a programmatic system. Care has been taken such that all the
original import namespaces remain intact and there should be no impact
on any existing applications. The rationale here was to break out these
very large modules into smaller ones, provide more manageable lists
of function names, to greatly reduce "import cycles" and clarify the
up-front importing of names, and to remove the need for redundant
functions and documentation throughout the expression package.

form of a some expressions when referring to the ``.c`` collection

notably the ``__getitem__()`` operator as used with a Postgresql
``ARRAY`` element. The fix also adds a new exception class

where a compiler is asked to compile something it doesn't know
how to. Also in 0.8.3.

- add support for correlations to propagate all the way in; because
correlations require context now, need to make sure a select enclosure
of any level takes effect any number of levels deep.
- fix what we said correlate_except() was supposed to do when we first
released #2668 - "the FROM clause is left intact if the correlated SELECT
is not used in the context of an enclosing SELECT..." - it was not
considering the "existing_froms" collection at all, and prohibited
additional FROMs from being placed in an any() or has().
- add test for multilevel any()
- lots of docs, including glossary entries as we really need to define
"WHERE clause", "columns clause" etc. so that we can explain correlation better
- based on the insight that a SELECT can correlate anything that ultimately
came from an enclosing SELECT that links to this one via WHERE/columns/HAVING/ORDER BY,
have the compiler keep track of the FROM lists that correspond in this way,
link it to the asfrom flag, so that we send to _get_display_froms() the exact
list of candidate FROMs to correlate. no longer need any asfrom logic in the
Select() itself
- preserve 0.8.1's behavior for correlation when no correlate options are given, not
to mention 0.7 and prior's behavior of not propagating implicit correlation more than one level..
this is to reduce surprises/hard-to-debug situations when a user isn't trying
to correlate anything.
target :class:`.Column` has been reworked to be as
immediate as possible, based on the moment that the
target :class:`.Column` is associated with the same
:class:`.MetaData` as this :class:`.ForeignKey`, rather
than waiting for the first time a join is constructed,
or similar. This along with other improvements allows
earlier detection of some foreign key configuration
issues. Also included here is a rework of the
type-propagation system, so that
it should be reliable now to set the type as ``None``
on any :class:`.Column` that refers to another via
:class:`.ForeignKey` - the type will be copied from the
target column as soon as that other column is associated,
and now works for composite foreign keys as well.
