Hello All,

I've just started using Firebird and it looks good. However, I'm
having some problems with table creation in a transaction.

The following script fails with the error:

kinterbasdb.ProgrammingError: (-204, 'execute.isc_dsql_prepare: Dynamic SQL
Error. SQL error code = -204. Table unknown. TEST. At line 1, column 15..')

However, if I commit the transaction after creating the table everything works
as expected. I was unable to find a documented reason for this behaviour.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Chaitan.

#!/usr/bin/python2.3

conn = kinterbasdb.connect(
host = "localhost",
database = "/var/lib/firebird/data/testdb.gdb",
user = "sysdba",
password = "masterkey"
)

cursor = conn.cursor()
conn.begin()

cursor.execute("""\
CREATE TABLE test (
test_id INTEGER,
test_value VARCHAR(20)
)""")

cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM test")
</snip>
