- added 2.4-style binops to util.Set on 2.3
- OrderedSets pickle on 2.3
- more lib/sqlalchemy set vs Set corrections
- fixed InstrumentedSet.discard for 2.3
- set, sorted compatibility for test suite
- added testing.fails_if decorator
- Part one of test suite fixes to run on 2.3
Lots of failures still around sets; sets.Set differs from __builtin__.set
particularly in the binops. We depend on set extensively now and may need to
provide a corrected sets.Set subclass on 2.3.
- Importing testenv has no side effects- explicit functions provide similar behavior to the old immediate behavior of testbase
- testing.db has the configured db
- Fixed up the perf/* scripts
- cleanup of mapper._instance, query.instances(). mapper identifies objects which are part of the
current load using a app-unique id on the query context.
- attributes refactor; attributes now mostly use copy-on-modify instead of copy-on-load behavior,
simplified get_history(), added a new set of tests
- fixes to OrderedSet such that difference(), intersection() and others can accept an iterator
- OrderedIdentitySet passes in OrderedSet to the IdentitySet superclass for usage in difference/intersection/etc. operations so that these methods actually work with ordering behavior.
- query.order_by() takes into account aliased joins, i.e. query.join('orders', aliased=True).order_by(Order.id)
- cleanup etc.
- Collections gain a @converter framework for flexible validation and adaptation of bulk assignment
- Bogus bulk assignments now raise TypeError instead of exceptions.ArgumentError
- also omitted all modules and classes that aren't expicitly public
- omitted 'Smallinteger' (small i), but it's still in schema
- omitted NullType-related items from types.__all__
- patched up a few tests to use sql.table and sql.column, other related.
