Re: Object-Oriented database
You can store any object as blob, but that's not a good idea (unless object is atomic in terms of your application). If you want to refer to your data in object-oriented manner, you can use one of the ORM pattern implementations on the client sise. As for a separate data type, no, MySQL doesn't have it. - Olexandr Melnyk, http://omelnyk.net/ 2007/5/4, sam rumaizan [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Is there such thing call Object-Oriented database for mysql?

RE: Object-Oriented database
If you serialize the object, you can store it in the data base as a blob.

RE: Object-Oriented database
This really isn't what he's talking about - rather than storing data as rows and tables, you store as objects and methods. MySQL does not support this; you can get this sort of functionality using something like Hibernate (an Object-Relational-Mapping tool), which is free but has a learning curve.
