Hi, Correction : OJB supports also 'long transactions'. In jakarta OJB, it's called 'optimistic locking'. It's possible to lock on a timestamp or a (version) number.

Exactly the kind of feedback I was hoping for. Has anyone had a similar experience with Hibernate and then decided to use OJB? -----Original Message----- From: Ted Stockwell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 03 October 2002 04:38 To: OJB Users List Subject: Re: OJB, Hibernate or Castor --- Ampie Barnard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I am a little confused now. Which one should I use? > You're not going to get any answer but OJB here :-) but I thought I'd share my reasons for using OJB. I used Castor in a project of mine for more than a year, from version 8.something to 9.something. During that time I ran into a LOT of bugs. In fact, each release seemed to introduce more bugs. I fixed a couple of bugs myself and posted patches to thier list but I never saw the patches applied. What initially attracted me to OJB was that I saw that the project had produced a suite of regression tests. I hoped that OJB would be more bug free and stable than Castor and I have not been disappointed. OJB works as advertised. I have used OJB since version 0.7.343 and I have encountered only minor problems. (The major changes to the configuration file format in version 0.9.something wasn't a lot of fun though :-)). I also was attracted to the proxy support and support for 'extents' in OJB, which Castor didn't have last time I used it. Things I used in Castor that OJB doesn't have yet ...support for 'long transactions'. BTW, thanks very much to Mr. Mahler and the OJB team for sharing thier very fine work with us. ted stockwell jlense.sf.net __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
