The AtomsFramework is an Object/Relational persistence layer for .NET (VB.NET,C#,etc) similar to ObjectSpaces etc. Database interaction is managed transparently at runtime and requires no SQL knowledge. Great performance, caching, flexible O/R mapping and much more.
This release adds support for:
1. Pessimistic Locking strategies, and
2. Improved error reporting, via new exception types.
The documentation has not been updated as yet, but will be before the 1.0 release is made available in the next month or so.
