Hibernate is and will be focused on relational databases. The other "datastores" don't offer a data model, data integrity, or consistent data manipulation operations. Using them as a database is dangerous for your data and I don't see a way to fix that with some persistence layer on top. -- Christian Bauer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hibernate.org/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Oracle 10g Get certified on the hottest thing ever to hit the market...
