Hi all I note that there has been a fair bit of discussion about what an ORM is.
That's all well and good but at the end of the day what counts is what people want / need regardless of what it is called. And then is it feasible to implement and is there sufficient demand to make it worth the effort to develop it. Those of us who use OO techniques in our xBase code would I think mostly appreciate a way of persisting our objects without abandoning the object concept. We will probably end up deriving our single item type classes from a base class that might, for example, be called TPersistableObject, which might include methods such as Read(), Write(), GetOID() etc I am assuming that the back end will utilise client server architecture / IP sockets. Regards Doug
