Ticket #14733: 14733-xof.diff

File 14733-xof.diff, 1.8 KB (added by Christophe Pettus, 14 years ago)

Per discussion on django-developers, a patch to remove the restrictions and update the documentation

  • trunk/docs/topics/db/sql.txt

     
    5656    :attr:`~Options.db_table` option, which also lets you manually set the
    5757    database table name.

     59.. admonition:: Statements permitted in ``.raw()`` queries
     60
     61    No checking is done on the SQL statement that is passed in to ``.raw()``.
     62    Django expects that the statement will return a set of rows from the
     63    database, but does nothing to enforce that. If the query does not
     64    return rows, a (possibly cryptic) error will result.
     65
    5966Of course, this example isn't very exciting -- it's exactly the same as
    6067running ``Person.objects.all()``. However, ``raw()`` has a bunch of other
    6168options that make it very powerful.
