Re: Set of choices of which several can be chosen without using a ManyToManyField

I wasn't aware of the existence of MultipleChoiceFields. The idea of
the above code was to express that I wanted to use this code

class Candidate(models.Model):

programming_languages = models.CharField(max_length=50, choices=(

(u'Python)', u'Python'),
(u'C++', u'C++'),
(u'Java', u'Java'),
# ...
), blank=True)

with the only exception that, in the admin interface, several choices
are possible when one creates a new candidate object. I.e. I want
admins to be able to create a candidate that knows, say Python *and* C+
+ by choosing both of these languages during the creation of the
object. I used the string "MultipleChoiceField" as a dummy for
whatever should be used instead.
