C++ DAS would be a DAS implementation in C++. When I said SDOHelper, I should have said XMLHelper.
As for XML DAS, you got it right, and as far as I know we don't have anyone looking into that as of now, at least in the Java side. - Luciano On 10/18/06, Geoffrey Winn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

There is a need for a C++ DAS implementation that would interop with the C++ SDO and mediate between the SDO and the back-end store. Could explain a little more about this? What is the SDOHelper? I'm not aware that SDO for C++ has an SDOHelper. And for the second item *XML DAS* Currently, Tuscany DAS only support RDB back-ends, altough the idea is that DAS could access and mediate data trough various backends representations, XML being one of them. This project consists in designing the DAS implementation over XML, how the commands would be structured (e.g using XQuery, XPath, etc) and also contribute important feedback to a possible DAS spec. I'd like to check that I understand this correctly. SDO already has an XMLHelper that will read an XML document and generate a data graph. I think you mean a DAS that will selectively read fragments of an XML document and generate data objects corresponding to those fragments. Is that somewhere near? If so, I think that's the sort of thing that would work well as a student project. Thanks and regards, Geoff.
