Hi,
Python 2.5 ships with SQLite. Since the version of this library
included in Python 2.5 is quite dated now, some users might prefer
installing a more recent version from
http://oss.itsystementwicklung.de/trac/pysqlite/
Unfortunately gluon/sql.py tries to import sqlite3 first, so the
manually installed library does not get used.
* I suggest to reverse the order in which sqlite3 and pysqlite2 is
tried to be imported to allow the users of web2py to install a more
recent version of the SQLite library.
Further, I do not see any reason why sqlite3 is appended to the
drivers variable as 'SQLite3' but pysqlite2 as 'SQLite2'. pysqlite2
is merely the name of the Python module, not the version number of the
underlying SQLite library which is of course also SQLite 3.
* I suggest not to distinguish between the two cases whether the
Library which ships with Python or a manually installed one is used
and add both as 'SQLite'.
The patch for both changes looks like this:
try:
from pysqlite2 import dbapi2 as sqlite3
drivers.append('SQLite')
except:
try:
import sqlite3
drivers.append('SQLite')
except:
logging.debug('no sqlite3 driver')
Kind regards,
Markus
