is passed through render_literal_value(), which may
implement escaping of backslashes. [ticket:1400]
- Postgresql render_literal_value() is overridden which escapes
backslashes, currently applies to the ESCAPE clause
of LIKE and similar expressions.
Ultimately this will have to detect the value of
"standard_conforming_strings" for full behavior.
[ticket:1400]
- MySQL render_literal_value() is overridden which escapes
backslashes, currently applies to the ESCAPE clause
of LIKE and similar expressions. This behavior
is derived from detecting the value of
NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES. [ticket:1400]
produces BLOB, BYTEA, or a similar "long binary" type.
New base BINARY and VARBINARY
types have been added to access these MySQL/MS-SQL specific
types in an agnostic way [ticket:1664].
"nullable=False" is not passed to Column(), and no default
is present. This is now consistent with all other types,
and in the case of TIMESTAMP explictly renders "NULL"
due to MySQL's "switching" of default nullability
for TIMESTAMP columns. [ticket:1539]
have native boolean support, will generate a CHECK
constraint "col IN (0, 1)" along with the int/smallint-
based column type. This can be switched off if
desired with create_constraint=False.
Note that MySQL has no native boolean *or* CHECK constraint
support so this feature isn't available on that platform.
[ticket:1589]
Uses a straight CheckConstraint with a generic expression. Preparing for boolean
constraint in [ticket:1589]
- CheckConstraint now accepts SQL expressions, though support for quoting of values
will be very limited. we don't want to get into formatting dates and such.
an error before passing to MySQL. Doesn't impact
CAST since VARCHAR is not allowed in MySQL CAST anyway,
the dialect renders CHAR/NCHAR in those cases.

construct and extends the generic Enum type. Automatically
associates itself with tables and their parent metadata
to issue the appropriate CREATE TYPE/DROP TYPE
commands as needed, supports unicode labels, supports
reflection. [ticket:1511]
- MySQL ENUM now subclasses the new generic Enum type, and also handles
unicode values implicitly, if the given labelnames are unicode
objects.
- Added a new Enum generic type, currently supported on
Postgresql and MySQL. Enum is a schema-aware object
to support databases which require specific DDL in
order to use enum or equivalent; in the case of PG
it handles the details of `CREATE TYPE`, and on
other databases without native enum support can
support generation of CHECK constraints.
[ticket:1109] [ticket:1511]
- types documentation updates
- some cleanup on schema/expression docs
- 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.
