Hi Johan, I started using Castor stuff about a year ago on one project but found it to heavy weight for the development I was doing... I haven't looked into ObjectBridge at all so may check that out to see what it has to offer... what I developed was something very lightweight as I stated before, nothing fancy, no caching, no handling of relationships... As to what I would like to create is pretty much what you state... I already have a tool to generate java objects from tables, so would look at rewriting this to do it from within squirrel... then as a a side project do a something like ObjectBridge et al... however, maybe I need to look at what other tools there are like ObjectBridge first... So far what I have developed for myself has been for small client side applications, so it is coded just around what I required at the time... shane At 11:13 1/08/2002 +0200, Johan Compagner wrote: >Hi Kermie, > >i am very interested what you would add to squirrel with JDO in mind. > >I use Castors JDO implementation in a project now but we are planning to >move to ObjectBridge (now part of Apache jakarta group) because the >developement is much more alive then with castor.
