Hi friends,
It's time to get a full Hibernate implementation in working order, so
that is what I'm going to start work on tomorrow morning. Aim: focused
development until I have something that can be used to implement a
non-trivial database backed application.
Before I get going, I meant to ask the list if there's anything specific
to keep in mind, features people would like and so on.
There are also some open questions:
- should it be based on ActiveHibernate, or from scratch? JRuby API
changes speak for the latter
- should it in fact be Hibernate or JPA?
- how close should it be to the ActiveRecord API?
- should there be any feature for migrations?
- should properties be declared in the common case?
If I don't get any good conclusions from the list I'll proceed with what
feels best in my opinion (so you are now officially warned).
I say get it working with whatever feels like it would be most useful,
quickest. Too much bikeshedding or over-planning seems like it would
kill the project before it starts. It can evolve as bits of it start
working and as we and others can start trying to use it.
