That's a really subjective statement.

Many apps are meant to be deployed on any number of different servers with any number of different DB backends. So while it's likely that you guys will never convert from your current in-house platform, I might write 3 dozens apps that are meant to be sold and can support at least the big 3 (Oracle, MySQL, and SQL Server). So in that case the number of apps that are changing back ends substantially outweighs the number of in-house apps that will always be on the same platform.

There are always worlds beyond worlds that contain people doing things that are the same as what you do and yet are completely different.

The only down side to that is now you lose the database agnostic portion of your code and create unnecessary dependencies on a specific dbms. In reality almost all web apps never change the database they are using.

Subject: Re: [Reactor for CF] GetWhere with Two OR's



Once you start getting into queries like this, you really have to ask yourself if you should be trying to do this with the OO queries. I'd give some thought to just placing the SQL into a custom gateway method. Just my 2 cents.

Benjamin,




Thanks so much for your help - and your feedback. The actual query I had written using reactor does have explicit fields in the select, so I probably should have included those. I'll have to try using a sub-query, though. Very good points!



Regards,



Jon
