'Aloha Friends! Still quite new to python I'm trying to access a MySQL database. Being a former perl programmer I recognize much of the semantics going on.
Create a database handle, compile a piece of SQL and put it into a cursor, run the query and use the result. exactly the same flow as I am used to. And it works just fine. But as programs grow larger, it is sometimes becomes a burden to compile those SQL's over and over again when they should be perfectly reusable. And implementing a "query cache" by myself seems not to be the right thing in this batteries included environment. Donno exactly what I'm looking for, but the perl equivalent is called prepare_cached. Oh, by the way, I'm using "import MySQLdb", hope that's not the most outdated, inefficient and stupid choice for a MySQL library... -- /Morten %-)
