Thank you for your explanations. After some digging, I've found the docs. Although I've a hard time to compile libglom on osx.

Is this intention because that would enable you to provide the user defined data structures (tables, relations, etc.) as Java objects, so they are re-usable directly for consumption when developing user defined web applications? I've chosen a similar architecture, because it allows me to construct ORM-mapped domain models (which correlates to user-defined tables) und re-use them two-fold: - For the management application (correlates to online-glom) - In add-on python packages that contain customer/project specific code. > >> If so, do you intend it to supersede the C++ glom or will they co-exist? > > They will co-exist.
