Re: [O] [Orgmode] Babel sql code block issue and patch proposal

Hi Eric,
Thanks for your message and sorry for the delay.
Actually, escaping characters with backslashes is the problem within mysql when the =SOURCE= command is invoqued. To believe the forums, it seems that this difficulty is well known among mysql users. The suggested solution there consists in piping the file content via the standard input of the mysql command instead of making use of the =SOURCE= command. In other words, let the shell do the job of finding the file as mysql can't. My initial suggestion for a patch relies on this conclusion and seems to work well. Now it's time to stop my own advertising and ask you about the cons of such a patch.
Best regards and thank you again.

Hi Alain,

Would the following work (escaping "-"s with a backslash)?

#+begin_src diff
 diff --git a/lisp/ob-sql.el b/lisp/ob-sql.el
 index 364070e..838f013 100644
 --- a/lisp/ob-sql.el
 +++ b/lisp/ob-sql.el

                                      (or cmdline "")

#+end_src
