Karl, I was not actually looking to use sql drivers in cocoon. I was looking to see if anyone has implemented xsp name space (i.e xsp:oodbms) that can access objects in the object oriented database. I understand that SQL is a purely relational concept and will not work in OODBMS. I guess looking to do is to create a new syntax that will be relevant in object world. For example, once you navigate to your 'rooted" object or primary collection stored in the database, you will no longer need query capabilities. You can simply use navigational methods. So in a sense it is a query to find the object and then retrieve it's attributes. The search could be based on primary key of the object or a combination of primary + attributes. Going back to my original question, I wanted to find out if someone already created a generic framework that is not dependent on the database. I hope that makes sense.

I have only seen relational database issues being discussed. I was wondering if anyone has considered object-oriented databases for storing their data. There are a number of commercial object oriented databases on the market (Versant, ObjectStore, Poet and others) as well as public domain Ozone (http://www.ozone-db.org). Does anyone on the list knows if there is framework in existence to generically access OODBMS? Is there an XSP name space (in concept similar to esql) available for this access?
