ORM stands for Object-Relationship Mapping... Java libraries like Hibernate, or ColdFusion libraries like Reactor, Transfer and ObjectBreeze.
They create the CFCs for your model by mapping database tables to objects. As for how to find out about GDMs for ModelGlue, head to http:// docs.model-glue.com and click How Tos in the left menu. Click How to Use Generic Database Messages and there ya go. Google is a good resource, too. Note that Model-Glue supports both Transfer and Reactor for GDMs. As for why you get that in the debug, it's just what MG does when you don't have one of the ORM adapters enabled. The ORM adapters allow MG to talk to a consistent API while the adapter itself talks to the ORM API that you're using. Sorry if this is incoherent or confusing... I was fishing (skunked!) most of the day and I'm falling asleep and my fingers are so frozen I am having issues typing. ;) J On Nov 9, 2008, at 3:01 PM, bmelendy wrote: > > Hi All, > I got the Translator program running after working through the quick > start at docs.model-glue.com.
