I don't know if they have improved in the last months. Just to put the record straight: Hibernate is not fully ODMG compliant, and have never claimed or intended to be (mainly because it complicates things unnecesarily IMHO :) <praising on> Hibernate got a ODMG3-style API, but the majority uses the native Hibernate API as it is simpler, stronger and more flexible ;) (especially now with Hibernate2 with its support for outer/left/right joins) </praising off> I could start comparing OJB and Hibernate, I've actually wanted to do that for a long time....but I don't have the time right now (gotta go to work :).....but maybe we (members of the two teams) should get together and make an objective comparison of the two frameworks - at least on the feature and philosophical level, just to have a page to refer this FAQ item to ? I'm thinking of something like: OJB does this, how does Hibernate handle that ? Hibernate does this, how does OBJ handle that ? Not just a "OJB got ODMG, Hibernate doesn't" or "Hibernate got outer/left/right joins, OJB doesn't". Each team should be able to provide a (small) argument on why it isn't there, what's the alternative or when it is comming (or why it is not comming).... And it should not just end up in raw performance comparisons, mainly because that has been done and the SQL generated is more or less equivalent, so it should not matter that much.....
