no comment New Page: = Torque Future = This page is intended to be a white board of ideas where to go for the next Torque major release. Don't expect everything written here to show up at once. I plan to use this page to poll for opinions on where to focus development in 2005. -- Henning == Torque Runtime == * Get rid of the static Peer classes. (hps) * Get rid of Village. (hps) * General SQL schema (database namespace) support. (hps) * Defined datatypes for SQL columns and tables. (hps) * Introduce a some sort of "handle" onto a data source / table collection, allowing things like defined initialization, setting default parameters (similar to Hibernate Session?) (hps) * Move functionality from the generated Peer and Object classes back into the runtime. (hps) * Build a pluggable criteria system using a generator (connected to the "handle" object to create a criteria and an evaluation method to get the query / select string) (hps) * (Maybe) split up the Criteria into an Insert / Select / Delete criteria (hps) * Build a unified Transaction system, which is able to use different transaction types thus allowing the usage of transactions managed by a container (hps) * Keep the "simple" approach that made Torque fast and versatile: Don't try to rebuild Hibernate. No generic object -> SQL mapper, just a table schema representation in SQL (hps) * No implicit caching (maybe pluggable). Use JCS? (hps) == Torque Code generator == * Start looking into commons-sql, once is has been transferred to the DB Project. Start replacing the SQL part of Code generation with the commons-sql generator, making it compatible and exchangeable with OJB (hps) * Examine ways to generate the Class sources with this project (hps) * Allow multiple OM schemata to be generated, allowing one installed torque generator to be used for multiple project with different runtime levels (-- Henning: I have a patch for this). (hps) * Get rid of Texen? Maybe go XSLT? Use some different templating technique (while Velocity and Texen do a reasonably good job, their error reporting really lacks. Integration of the engine into other projects is also not really intuitive). (hps) == Maven Plugin == * Generalize into a "code generator" plugin?
