changes to Enum/SchemaType to re-support adaptation of string types.
This approach can be adapted by "conditional" unicode returning dialects
(i.e. pyodbc and possibly mxodbc) to remove the overhead
of isinstance(value, unicode) calls when the dialect returned type is
of dbapi.UNICODE, dbapi.NVARCHAR, etc.
upon close() - fixed that.
- Transaction object doesn't rollback or commit if it isn't
"active", allows more accurate nesting of begin/rollback/commit.
- Added basic support for mxODBC [ticket:1710].
- Python unicode objects as binds result in the Unicode type,
not string, thus eliminating a certain class of unicode errors
on drivers that don't support unicode binds.
reimplementing the highest impact functions.
The actual speedups will depend heavily on your DBAPI and
the mix of datatypes used in your tables, and can vary from
a 50% improvement to more than 200%. It also provides a modest
(~20%) indirect improvement to ORM speed for large queries.
Note that it is *not* built/installed by default.
See README for installation instructions.
- The most common result processors conversion function were
moved to the new "processors" module. Dialect authors are
encouraged to use those functions whenever they correspond
to their needs instead of implementing custom ones.
of statements have more consistent behavior w.r.t.
parenthesizing. Each compound element embedded within
another will now be grouped with parenthesis - previously,
the first compound element in the list would not be grouped,
as SQLite doesn't like a statement to start with
parenthesis. However, Postgresql in particular has
precedence rules regarding INTERSECT, and it is
more consistent for parenthesis to be applied equally
to all sub-elements. So now, the workaround for SQLite
is also what the workaround for PG was previously -
when nesting compound elements, the first one usually needs
".alias().select()" called on it to wrap it inside
of a subquery. [ticket:1665]
Allows RowProxy objects to reference just the metadata they need and provides the "core" of ResultProxy
detached from the object itself, allowing ResultProxy implementations to vary more easily. will also

before issuing the usual "expr != expr" clause. The
"expr != expr" can be very expensive, and it's preferred
that the user not issue in_() if the list is empty,
instead simply not querying, or modifying the criterion
as appropriate for more complex situations.

method call counts when fetching columns that have no
type-level processing applied. Provides a 100% speed
improvement when fetching large result sets with no unicode
conversion. Many thanks to Elixir's Gaëtan de Menten
for this dramatic improvement ! [ticket:1586]
- deprecated PassiveDefault - use DefaultClause.
- the BINARY and MSBinary types now generate "BINARY" in all
cases. Omitting the "length" parameter will generate
"BINARY" with no length. Use BLOB to generate an unlengthed
binary column.
- the "quoting='quoted'" argument to MSEnum/ENUM is deprecated.
It's best to rely upon the automatic quoting.
- "shortname" attribute on bindparam() is removed.
- fold_equivalents flag on join is deprecated (will remain
until [ticket:1131] is implemented)
- "scalar" flag on select() is removed, use
select.as_scalar().
- 'transactional' flag on sessionmaker() and others is
removed. Use 'autocommit=True' to indicate 'transactional=False'.
- 'polymorphic_fetch' argument on mapper() is removed.
Loading can be controlled using the 'with_polymorphic'
option.
- 'select_table' argument on mapper() is removed. Use
'with_polymorphic=("*", <some selectable>)' for this
functionality.
- 'proxy' argument on synonym() is removed. This flag
did nothing throughout 0.5, as the "proxy generation"
behavior is now automatic.
- Passing a single list of elements to eagerload(),
eagerload_all(), contains_eager(), lazyload(),
defer(), and undefer() instead of multiple positional
-args is deprecated.
- Passing a single list of elements to query.order_by(),
query.group_by(), query.join(), or query.outerjoin()
instead of multiple positional *args is deprecated.
- query.iterate_instances() is removed. Use query.instances().
- Query.query_from_parent() is removed. Use the
sqlalchemy.orm.with_parent() function to produce a
"parent" clause, or alternatively query.with_parent().
- query._from_self() is removed, use query.from_self()
instead.
- the "comparator" argument to composite() is removed.
Use "comparator_factory".
- RelationProperty._get_join() is removed.
- the 'echo_uow' flag on Session is removed. Use
logging on the "sqlalchemy.orm.unitofwork" name.
- session.clear() is removed. use session.expunge_all().
- session.save(), session.update(), session.save_or_update()
are removed. Use session.add() and session.add_all().
- the "objects" flag on session.flush() remains deprecated.
- the "dont_load=True" flag on session.merge() is deprecated
in favor of "load=False".
- passing an InstanceState (internal SQLAlchemy state object) to
attributes.init_collection() or attributes.get_history() is
deprecated. These functions are public API and normally
expect a regular mapped object instance.
- the 'engine' parameter to declarative_base() is removed.
Use the 'bind' keyword argument.
sets require that all keys are present which are
present in the first bound parameter set. The structure
and behavior of an insert/update statement is very much
determined by the first parameter set, including which
defaults are going to fire off, and a minimum of
guesswork is performed with all the rest so that performance
is not impacted. For this reason defaults would otherwise
silently "fail" for missing parameters, so this is now guarded
against. [ticket:1566]
psycopg2 can't handle a bind parameter name of
%(foobar)s however and SQLA doesn't want to add overhead
just to treat that one non-existent use case.
[ticket:1279]
- MySQL: somewhat better support for % signs in table/column names;
MySQLdb can't handle % signs in SQL when executemany() is used,
and SQLA doesn't want to add overhead just to treat that one
non-existent use case. [ticket:1279]
