Re: [Babeldoc-devel] Possible changes to SQL Config immediate write

[Dejan K. <dej...@ya...>]

Hi Mike, 
First of all, I must say that I have never used that
code so I am probably not aware of all issues
regarding to SQlConfig. I know that Erik has some
problems with initial SqlConfig implementation since
his system was required to run in clustered enviroment
where all nodes should be aware of changes made in one
node (without restarting). So, (if I remember well) he
dropped all cache usage in SqlConfig and every change
made in configuration is immediatelly written to
database. 

Now, I am not sure if this could be done better.
Perhaps, you could introduce some new config option
that would enable cache usage in SqlConfig.

I am not sure if this is all true, but you could
search mailing list. Also, I guess that old
SqlConfig(Service) implementation is still in CVS so
you can look at the CVS history for these files. 

regards,
Dejan
