[PonyORM-list] Couple of questions

[Goldberg, Arthur P]

Pony's nifty -- thanks.

Some questions:

1. Direct SQL. Suppose I want to drop a table. I thought that this would work because executescript() appears in examples
        sql = "DROP TABLE IF EXISTS %s;" % tableName
        db.get_connection().executescript(sql)

2. Entity class fields. Suppose I have

class Subject(db.Entity):
    FamilyID = Optional(str)
    IndivID = PrimaryKey(str)
    PatID = Optional(str, default='0')
    MatID = Optional(str, default='0')
    Sex = Required(str)
    Pheno = Required(int)
    SampleSet = Required(str)
    variants = Set(Variant)
className = 'Subject'
self.slqobj = globals()[ className ]
# I can get all fields in Subject with
self.slqobj._attrs_

but is there an official method?

Thanks
Arthur
