Hi, I am pleased to announce the release of ODB 1.4.0 with support for Qt.
ODB is an open-source object-relational mapping (ORM) system for C++. It allows you to persist C++ objects to a relational database without having to deal with tables, columns, or SQL and without manually writing any of the mapping code. This release add persistence support for the following Qt components: Basic types: * QString * QByteArray Date-time types: * QDate * QTime * QDateTime Smart pointers: * QSharedPointer * QWeakPointer Plus their lazy counterparts: * QLazySharedPointer * QLazyWeakPointer Containers: * QVector * QList * QLinkedList * QSet * QMap * QMultiMap * QHash * QMultiHash With this support we can now automatically persist classes like this: #pragma db object class Employee { ... QString first_name_; QString last_name_; QDate born_; QSet<QString> emails_; QByteArray publicKey_; QSharedPointer<Employer> employer_; }; A more detailed discussion of this and other new features can be found in the following blog post: http://www.codesynthesis.com/~boris/blog/2011/04/27/odb-1-4-0-released/ ODB is written in portable C++ and you should be able to use it with any modern C++ compiler. In particular, we have tested this release on GNU/Linux (x86/x86-64), Windows (x86/x86-64), Mac OS X, and Solaris (x86/x86-64/SPARC) with GNU g++ 4.2.x-4.5.x, MS Visual C++ 2008 and 2010, and Sun Studio 12. Qt support has been tested on GNU/Linux, Windows (VC++ 2008 and 2010 as well as GCC with MinGW), and Mac OS X. More information, documentation, source code, and pre-compiled binaries are available from: http://www.codesynthesis.com/products/odb/ Enjoy, Boris >> Visit http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-devel#unsub to unsubscribe <<
