Just received an email from Godefroid Chappele talking about
Modeling, which is a python package that aims to provide a
object-relational bridge for Python, much the same way as SQLObject does.
I looked around at the documentation and got really impressed. It
sounds like its incredibly bigger than SQLObject, and also well
designed and has lots of tests. I just couldn't figure out if it is
really a code generator or if it will generate classes instead. I
would prefer the latter. In fact, if it comes out that we decide about
using it, I may be working to fix that (of course I need to dig more
to see if this isn't already implemented or if it is really possible
to do).
I can't really understand why people want code generators, if they
could get much more flexibility from metaclass-based class generators
reading from XML. Oh well...
