[python-win32] SQL Server event notifications ?

[j vickroy]

Hello all,

I realize this is more of a SQL Server question than a Python/Windows 
question, but ...

I would like to develop an application that receives event notifications 
from SQL Server rather than polling the database.  Specifically, I am 
interested in table INSERT and UPDATE events.  Is this possible?  Has 
anyone done this from Python?

I looked at:

    * CREATE EVENT NOTIFICATION (Transact-SQL) --
      http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189453.aspx
    * Creating Service Broker Services --
      http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms171609.aspx

but I did not understand the Service Broker Services information well 
enough to know.

I am not very knowledgable about SQL Server, but I could have our DBA 
assist me in setting this up.

Thanks,
-- jv
