10.2.42 MySQLConnection.get_warnings Property

This property can be assigned a value of True or False to enable or disable whether warnings should be fetched automatically. The default is False (default). The property can be invoked to retrieve the current warnings setting.

Fetching warnings automatically can be useful when debugging queries. Cursors make warnings available through the method MySQLCursor.fetchwarnings().

>>> cnx.get_warnings = True
>>> cursor.execute('SELECT "a"+1')
>>> cursor.fetchall()
[(1.0,)]
>>> cursor.fetchwarnings()
[(u'Warning', 1292, u"Truncated incorrect DOUBLE value: 'a'")]

Returns True or False.
