[SQLObject] problem with contructor of an object

[Markus J. <mar...@ya...>]

hello

this is my sample code:

---
from SQLObject import *


conn = MySQLConnection(user='abc', db='abook', passwd='def')

class Person(SQLObject):

	_connection = conn

	firstName = StringCol()
	lastName = StringCol()


#Person.createTable()

p1 = Person.new(firstName="Frodo", lastName="Baggins")
p2 = Person(firstName="Bilbo", lastName="Baggins")
---


creating p1 works fine and Frodo is inserted into the database.
but Bilbo does not work. but according to the Documentation it should
work if I understand this correctly.


I get this error:


p2 = Person(firstName="Bilbo", lastName="Baggins")
TypeError: __new__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'lastName'


I have Python 2.3.3 
and a SQLObject Snapshot I downloaded a few days ago.

but I am not sure if this is the correct version. the documentation says
0.6, but setup.py says 5.1


any hints ?

I am quite new to SQLObject, so maybe I just did not understand
everything correctly.

regards

Markus
