The different "openerp model inheritance" mechanisms: what's the difference between them, and when should they be used ?

wording: how about "the different inheritance mechanisms", "inheritance schemes", or "inheritance paradigms". You could also specifically address "view inheritance" or "model inheritance" – odony Jan 10 at 13:39

More suitabable for ServerFault, actually. There are some specific details to take care for OpenERP, such as WebDAV/Documents. IMO one important point of this proposal is to unify into one place what today is scattered is SO, SuperUser and ServerFault. – DReispt Jan 8 at 17:25

Would probably worth to be a wiki/community question, with a frequently edited answer in order to keep it up to date. – Anto Jan 8 at 15:28
See the chapter Community projects here : doc.openerp.com/v6.1/contribute/… – Joël Grand-Guillaume Jan 9 at 9:02
@Anto You are right it wouldn't be efficient to make an answer which should be reedited. So, I changed the "What is" to a "Where is" question. – Yannick Jan 12 at 13:46
@Yannick: SE has the perfect formula for that kind of question I think: wiki answer. I wanted to give an example but I can't find one right now :/ – Anto Jan 12 at 14:30

By the way, the "v7" here is only included in the title because there are no other way to specify the version. But in a typical SE site, it would probably be specified with a tag (way easier for research and referencing). – Anto Jan 8 at 16:27

Does this mean "How to inherit a tree view to change the line colour rules"? – DReispt Jan 11 at 9:53
Yes this is what I was thinking of. Well it is the kind of question how to inherit some object there are some case you need xpath and attributes. Maybe I should make it more generic to be a good valuable question. – Yannick Jan 11 at 20:51

Why it is not possible to run openerp mysql database or others open sources databases (none open source) ?
added by O2DC Jan 6 at 14:49

Technically I think it would be possible with orm changes but there would no added value. Mysql becomes minus transparency. Postgresql rocks, is opensource for ever (differents contributors, not only one company). There are a lot of other ways to help OpenERP. The ERP vendors owners generally deliver the connexion both to sql server and oracle because their customer's teams already control one of these (really high price formation) and they don't want to move to another high price techno. But you can administer Postgres with a really reasonnable costs. So no needs to use another database. – bealdav Jan 7 at 10:16

Would probably be edited by a moderator to become a wider question; perhaps something like "Why doesn't OpenERP work with other DBMS than Postgres ?" – Anto Jan 8 at 15:30
