#21 Bigint type fix

[Anonymous]

Problem #1
I am using SQLObject for my latest project that I need
bigint primary keys. In order to get things to work i
had to touchup the Converters.py file. I registered a
new Converter for the long type so that when it gets
converted it doesn't add the SQL incompatible (ex.
'0L') L at the end. So around line 102 I added.

#lakowske 4/18/04 fixes long type conversion

def LongConverter(value, db):

return repr(str(value))

registerConverter(type(0L), LongConverter)

Problem #2
I'm using SQLObject 0.5.1 because with the new 0.5.2 I
can't call [MyInheritedSQLObjectClass].new(). SQLObject
wants to stick a extra primary key in the sql
statement. Note: I am using alternative primary keys
via. _idName = 'uid', and of course I'm having the
classes built from the tables via. _fromDatabase =
'fuser'. I haven't dug through the source code on this
one, since 0.5.1 works fine, though it would be nice if
a fix was made so that I (and others who use
_fromDatabase and _idName) can stay up to date.

In any case, thanks for the great software.

I'm not clear the second report. First is fixed in 0.6.
I'll need more of an explanation for that.
