Backend-specific DateTimeField pre-processing

2008-04-01 Thread Adam V.
In DateTimeField.get_db_prep_save there is a hard-coded check for the mysql backend, which drops the microseconds from the value. I'm working on an external MS SQL backend (django-mssql) and I'm running into a different problem here. DateTimeFields are sent to queries as unicode which looks like

Model inheritance is not there yet. You can take a look at the queryset-refactor branch, since Changeset 7126 moder inheritance begun to take shape. The changeset also includes documentation about that. You can either use this branch or wait until it gets merger to trunk. http://code.djangoproje
