Hi! I've started thinking about possible extension of the current supported mapping strategies. The directions I am investigating right now are including: - component mapping - relations - inheritance - spreaded
So far (and indeed the easiest one) are the component mappings: they allow mapping the properties of a child object to the properties of the current working node. In the JCR world, a very good example of this are the mixins. Introducing a mixin to a node may add a set of properties that the user can manipulate with the help of a single entity. Such an entity doesn't have any restrictions upon it (no path required, as it doesn't live by itself, no limitation in children, anything). Please let me know what do you think about this. In the future episodes I will try to address the remaining areas. cheers, ./alex -- .w( the_mindstorm )p.
