All,
Over on the cx_Oracle list we have been discussing adding support
for returning native Unicode strings and decimal objects. We have
so far been talking about using a settable attribute on the connection
and the cursor with the cursor inheriting the value from the connection
by default. The is very similar to the existing technique used
by cx_Oracle for the "numbersAsString" and the technique used
by mxODBC for the "stringFormat" and "datetimeFormat".
Anyone have any thoughts/feelings/opinions about moving towards
standardizing how we do this kind of thing across the different
database modules?
Thanks in advance,
Jim Patterson
