Re: DB_DataObjects save method

It could, but I suspect it would add alot of needless bloat for a rarely used method. I think the insert/update route would be safer. Regards Alan Andrew Nagy wrote:

Can db_dataobject detect if a sql query syntax is available? Since this is not a standard, it would be nice if this function could determine if it is supported by the current db and if so call the query otherwise use some logic to determine whether or not to call insert or update. I don't know enough about the inner workings of DB and DO, maybe the database driver would have this? Or would it not be worth calling the sql directly and just using the insert or update? Andrew
