Description Murray Cumming 2009-01-08 16:41:32 UTC 
I don't think we can set values using the same [] syntax that is available for getting values. We should make that possible.

Comment 1 Murray Cumming 2010-02-25 18:52:32 UTC 
Implemented with this commit. It's easier now that we are using boost::python.

	Python functions: Allow setting of values in the record via [].

	* glom/python_embed/python_module/py_glom_module.cc: Specify a setitem(),
	so python code can use [] syntax to set the record's field values as
	well as getting them.
	* glom/libglom/python_embed/py_glom_record.[h|cc]:
	PyGlomRecord_SetFields(): Take and store the primary key details and value,
	and use it in setitem() to UPDATE the value in the database.
	* glom/python_embed/glom_python.[h|cc]:
	glom_execute_python_function_implementation(),
	glom_evaluate_python_function_implementation():
	Take the primary key field and value.
	* glom/base_db.cc:
	* glom/base_db_table_data.cc:
	* glom/mode_data/box_data.cc:
	* glom/mode_design/fields/dialog_fieldcalculation.cc:
	* glom/mode_design/layout/layout_item_dialogs/dialog_buttonscript.cc:
	Adapted.
