So you would have to insert records for each object individually, then call distributed_transaction_commit.
dba.customers.insert(....) dbb.sales.insert(....) dba.distributed_transaction_commit(dba, dbb) How would you perform a join? dba(dba.customers.id == dbb.sales.id_customer).select() for row in rows: row.customers.name, row.sales.total row.update_record(sales.tax=1.08) dba.distributed_transaction_commit(dba,dbb) -Thadeus On Thu, Oct 29, 2009 at 4:46 PM, mdipierro <mdipie...@cs.depaul.edu> wrote: > > There is a single function.
