I dont think there is really a plan to "integrate" torque and ojb - they are both quite different approaches to similar problems.
However, I think there are a few efforts to consolidate duplicated functionality, and also to make moving from one to another easier. First are the OJB targets in torque - these use a torque schema.xml to generate a baseline ojb repository.xml and object model classes. These actually work pretty well, I was able to use them to fairly quickly convert a small test app with 5 persistent object classes to OJB in just a few hours. The "conversion" is not perfect, but it is a good head start - I think it would have taken me a few days to code all of that by hand. There is also the jakarta-comons-sandbox-sql project, which aims to do all of the database/dml type stuff. It is heavily based on the Torque schema.xml and generation code, though it is aimed at being more generic. This project could eventually replace this functionality in both torque and OJB. > -----Original Message----- > From: Warner Onstine [mailto:sw-list@;warneronstine.com] > Sent: Wednesday, October 23, 2002 8:36 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Fw: torque and ojb > > > Since noone touched this on the users list I'm reposting > here, to see if > anyone wants to take a stab. > > -warner > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Warner Onstine" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "torque user" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Saturday, October 19, 2002 11:09 AM > Subject: torque and ojb > > > > Hi all, > > Having recently seen a very good presentation on JDO I went > out and about > > looking for JDO implementations and found out that OJB is > one in progress. > I > > have been using Torque for all of my database O/R mapping > for a while now > > and really like (with a few small quirks), I noticed some > reference to OJB > > targets in the build-torque.xml and properties file. > However that was > pretty > > much all of the docs listed. > > > > I am also a Maven user (all of my current projects use > maven-b7), so I > > downloaded Markus' maven plug-in to play with and noticed > the maven ojb > > targets there as well. > > > > I know that there was discussion on the dev list a while back about > > integrating torque and ojb (as well as a db.apache.org, btw where is > that?) > > and I was curious how well the ojb generation stuff works, > if I am using > > idbroker how do I change my schema reference to do something else. > > > > And I guess, what's the status of integration, what's the > plan with OJB? > > > > -warner > > > > +warner onstine+ > > > > > > -- > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > <mailto:turbine-torque-user-unsubscribe@;jakarta.apache.org> > > For additional commands, e-mail: > <mailto:turbine-torque-user-help@;jakarta.apache.org> > > > > > > > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > <mailto:turbine-torque-dev-unsubscribe@;jakarta.apache.org> > For additional commands, e-mail: > <mailto:turbine-torque-dev-help@;jakarta.apache.org> > -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:turbine-torque-dev-unsubscribe@;jakarta.apache.org> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:turbine-torque-dev-help@;jakarta.apache.org>
