I am choosing a persistence framework. Right now my choices are
Castor and Hibernate. I am having trouble finding good comparisons of
these two techs. I have a limited experience in Castor and none in
Hibernate and this has been driving my decision. I had set on
starting with Castor and then possibly exploring a switch to Hibernate
as an exercise.
It has been more difficult to implement Castor than I expected. The
difficulty comes from the lack of documentation. My usually way of
learning something is to pickup the O'Reilly or 'in Action' book and
devour it. These resources do not exist for Castor so I have been
trying to glean the Internet for documentation. I have found the
website's documentation very lacking and a quick start at best. Most
of the other documentation I have found are quick starts more then a
full fledged user's guide. The lack has pushed me to Hibernate.
So, I am curious. How did you all learn Castor? Are there some well
hidden gems of Castor documentation out there? Does anyone know if
there is a book in the works?
Also, Does anyone have a good reason why they use Castor and not
another tech like Hibernate?
Thanks,
Jacob Tomaw
