Hello colleagues, there are areas in JBoss that need persistence solutions. Right now each area has its own more or less ugly solution (not because of developers' skills but more because of JDBC portability issues, differences in database data types, etc). We could use Hibernate. But Hibernate is a solution for business domain persistence and looks like too much for our local problems. So what is in fact needed is some very simple persistence API and the ability to generate database schema (in fact one-two tables) which guarantees portability across database products and can be re-used in different areas in JBoss. Up to this level, it's not really a big problem and I could implement it as a separate library but after some discussions there was a decision to try and add (or maybe just externalize/refactor) this functionality in Hibernate. First of all I would appreciate comments from the Hibernate team on this. Is the problem more or less clear? How would you imagine this done in Hibernate? What should I start with? What branch? Any other comments, ideas?
