id column as a primary key not wanted

[beatpanic]

Hi, in my application I have a "legacy" (read pre-built) database
which I am autoload-ing in this way:

class Area(Entity):
using_options(tablename='areas', autoload=True)

I have Camelot==11.05.13

Camelot complains in this way:

ERROR:camelot.view.model_thread.signal_slot_model_thread:exception
caught in model thread while executing _update_unflushed_rows
Traceback (most recent call last):

queryproxy.py", line 193, in append
if not o.id:
AttributeError: 'Area' object has no attribute 'id'

If it were possible I would avoid this 'id' field because I have other
primary keys in the db, hints? :)

thanks!

ciao,
Marco

Hello Marco,

This was indeed a bug in Camelot. Camelot should not
rely on the name of the primary key or the number of
columns in it.

This is fixed in the trunk. Should you see other cases
of this happening, please report them.

Regards,

Erik

thanks Erik! I'll try it as soon as possible and let you know how it
goes.
I will surely report bugs if I will encounter them.

thanks again,
Marco
