Here is a blog article about what core functionality an ORM should support:
http://pythonnotes.blogspot.com/2004/09/python-orm-tools.html Specifically, take note of the paragraph that reads: To implement true object persistence, each object needs a unique identifier. Each ORM will use a different approach here. However, one issue that is common to all ORMs is how to handle multiple copies of the same object. For the sake of consistence, objects should be singletons. If the ORM tool doesn't do it automatically, then it's up to the programmer to make sure that no multiple copies of the same object exist at the same time, avoiding concurrency and consistency issues. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
